ILLINOIS – State Representative Jennifer Sanalitro (R–Hanover Park) has sponsored legislation to provide tax relief for employers and employees who invest in education and job training.
House Bill 1752 creates income tax deductions for employers and employees who utilize educational assistance programs to enhance workforce skills. The goal is to make it easier and more affordable for workers to continue their education and for businesses to invest in their employees.
