The Most Popular Thanksgiving Pie and Side Dish in Illinois

Thanksgiving in Illinois comes with strong opinions, and everyone has a hill they’re willing to die on when it comes to the table.

Proposed change in farm estate tax has broad support

(The Center Square) – Legislation to change the state’s death tax credit could help families hold on to their farms as land values rise. Illinois Farm Bureau Associate Director of State Legislation Mark Raney said farmers currently pay the estate tax on everything more than $4 million in value, which is easily exceeded by the average Illinois grain farm with 1,500 acres. “And that doesn't include the value of any of your equipment, your trucks, the value of any livestock you may have harvested, corn or soy, doesn't include barns, doesn't include your house,” Raney told The Center Square. Raney said the Family Farm Preservation Act changes the $4 million threshold and would be huge for agriculture in Illinois. “We want that number to be $6 million, however, the first 6 million is tax-free. So if your estate is $6.5 million, you are taxed on $500,000 and then we tie that $6 million to inflation,” Raney said. Raney said the bill would alleviate the discrepancy between high land values and income. State Rep. Sharon Chung, D-Bloomington, filed House Bill 4736 last March, after her previous version of the Family Farm Preservation Act failed to advance in 2025. Gov. J.B. Pritzker

This Unassuming Illinois Spot Piles Pizzas High With Toppings And Serves Wings Worth Licking Your Fingers For

Sixteen first-place wins at Chicago’s WingFest is a lot of hardware for one modest neighborhood grill. Add four Best of Fest awards, and that shelf starts looking crowded. The place doesn’t stop at wings, either. Homemade tavern-style thin crust pizza comes out of the same kitchen, along with garlic buffalo wings that seem to have their own fan club.

Caution urged following Illinois jobs, revenue reports

(The Center Square) – A strong labor market is helping to boost Illinois tax revenues, but an economics professor says states with budget difficulties should be prepared in case unemployment rises. The Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability said Illinois sales tax revenues grew $175 million, or 17.1% in October and corporate income tax receipts increased $100 million, or 43%. David Yaskewich, professor of economics and chair of accounting, economics and finance at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, said income tax and sales taxes are the primary generators of revenue at the state level. “If we have a healthy labor market where people are working, that would be something that would tend to generate revenue. So in a low unemployment period, if a state were having difficulties with its budget, that would be potentially worrisome, because if unemployment were to rise, it could only really get worse from that standpoint,” Yaskewich told The Center Square. The Illinois state budget is $55.9 billion for fiscal year 2027, up from $39 billion in 2019. The Illinois Flash Index increased from 101.5 in September to 101.7 in October, reflecting continued strength in state revenues and an improving labor market. Yaskewich said
