Below are instructions from the Illinois Revenue Alliance on how to file witness slips for these proposals in advance of the hearings.
SHOW YOUR SUPPORT by submitting witness slips by the time of the hearings and asking your members/bases to do the same to show support for our bills.
1) Senate Revenue Committee witness slips here: https://ilga.gov/Senate/hearings/details/3078/22951/createwitnessslip
2) House Revenue and Finance Committee witness slips here: https://ilga.gov/House/hearings/details/3095/22932/createwitnessslip
To complete a witness slip:
1) In the Identification section, fill out the form with your information.
2) In the Representation section, list your organization if you have one. If you are filing a slip as an individual, you can write "individual ILRA supporter"
3) In the Position section, select the item in the "Add Legislation" menu, and choose “proponent” in "Add Position" menu, and then click the "Add Position" box
IMPORTANT: For the Senate revenue hearing, add ALL FOUR bills (SB 3353, SB 3486, SB 3376, and SB 3796). You will generate one slip for all four bills.
For the House revenue hearing, add HB 5215 ONLY
4) In the Testimony section, choose “record of appearance only”
5) Click the box at the bottom agreeing to the terms
