This bill would certainly help our Knox County farmers. Glad to know it has JB’s support.

I’m excited to share that Governor JB Pritzker supports my legislation to help Illinois farmers!

For too long, family farms have been squeezed by an outdated and unfair system. By reforming our tax code, we can ensure that families can hand down their farms to their kids, ensuring that food continues to reach tables across the state and our nation.

With the Governor’s support and our community’s backing, I look forward to getting House Bill 4736 passed! To learn more about this proposal, visit http://ILGA.gov
