Illinois Democrats are at it again with a new proposed tax. This time they’re trying to tax your campfires!
HB 4459, proposed by Rep. Amy Briel (D), would force you to get a permit and pay up to $5 every time you light a backyard fire pit, roast marshmallows, or enjoy a simple campfire with family and friends. It’s sold as “supporting fire protection,” but it’s just another fee on everyday fun, with massive fines up to $100,000–$500,000 for violations.
No wonder Illinois taxes are so high – Illinois Democrats want to tax everything including your backyard fire pit.
