Gov. Pat Quinn wants lawmakers to vote Wednesday on an income tax increase while they're in Springfield working on the state budget.
...
The governor has called a special session to get lawmakers back to work to avoid $9.2 billion in spending cuts. But so far there hasn't been enough support among lawmakers to pass Quinn's tax increase.
Quinn wants a two-year, temporary boost that would raise the personal income tax rate to 4.5 percent from 3 percent.
