Senator Harriss Passes Property Tax Relief Bill for Seniors
SPRINGFIELD – To help Illinois seniors stay in their homes and ease the burden of rising property taxes, State Senator Harriss (56th-Glen Carbon) helped pass a plan to expand Illinois’ property tax relief program for older homeowners.
“One of the top issues I hear when meeting with senior citizen is the need for property tax relief. As a direct result of these conversations and concerns, I have worked each year since I was elected to draft and submit bill language to do just that,” said Senator Harriss, “I am elated to report that specific language was added to this bill, and passed. This is a win for seniors, and I am proud to have championed this effort.”
Senate Bill 642 raises the income limits for the Low-Income Senior Citizens Assessment Freeze Homestead Exemption, also known as the “Senior Freeze.” The bill increases the income cap to $75,000 in 2026, $77,000 in 2027, and $79,000 in 2028 and beyond, allowing more seniors to qualify for relief.
Illinois continues to face some of the highest property taxes in the nation. The measure passed the Senate unanimously and now heads to the Governor for final consideration.
