Similar to the progressive income tax amendment voters rejected in 2020\, Amendment 1 is a constitutional amendment subject to voter approval that includes new taxation. Proponents also refer to Amendment 1 as the "Workers' Rights Amendment."\n\n \n\nAmendment 1 would add a provision to the Illinois constitution that allows collective bargaining to expand beyond typical negotiations over wages and compensation to potentially include social or political demands. Taxpayers will fund these broad new provisions through increased property taxes. Amendment 1 guarantees the average Illinois family will pay at least $2\,149 more in property taxes\, but the amount is likely much higher.
