There is a new Illinois lawsuit seeking to stop the recently enacted increases in beer, wine and spirits taxes. There are several arguments advanced in the complaint. Of interest to me is its discussion of beer taxes vs. wine/liquor taxes. In a new twist on the long running equilization debate, the plaintiff claims it is unfair underIllinois law that higher alcohol products are taxed at a higher rate than lower alcohol products. A copy of this lawsuit is available for your review.
