1 AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 1176
2 AMENDMENT NO. . Amend Senate Bill 1176 on page 1,
3 immediately below line 3, by inserting the following:
4 "Section 1.1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the
5 Motor Fuel Consumer Relief Tax Act.
6 Section 1.5. Legislative intent. The goals of this Act
7 are to grant relief to the consumer of Illinois motor fuel
8 and, at the same time, to bring in the revenue that is
9 necessary to meet current State fiscal needs. These goals
10 can best be met by reverse-indexing the State use and
11 occupation taxes on motor fuel to the price of motor fuel so
12 that if the price of motor fuel goes up, the percentage of
13 tax imposed on motor fuel will decrease, and vice versa.
14 Section 1.10. Definitions. As used in this Act:
15 "Department" means the Illinois Department of Revenue.
16 Section 1.15. Department to determine amount of revenue
17 generated by State use and occupation taxes on motor fuel.
18 The Department of Revenue must determine, before July 1,
19 2001, the average quarterly revenues earned by the State
20 through the State's portion of the use and occupation taxes
-2- LRB9205953SMdvam07
1 on motor fuel during the 3 State fiscal years 1999, 2000, and
2 2001.
3 Section 1.20. Department to determine quarterly motor
4 fuel usage and price. The Department must estimate, before
5 June 30, 2001, Illinois motor fuel usage by volume for the
6 quarter beginning on July 1, 2001 and the expected average
7 sales price of motor fuel in Illinois for the quarter
8 beginning on July 1, 2001. For each quarter thereafter,
9 before the end of the quarter preceding that quarter, the
10 Department must estimate Illinois motor fuel usage by volume
11 for that quarter and the expected average sales price of
12 motor fuel in Illinois for that quarter.
13 Section 1.25. Department to estimate tax revenues
14 required to maintain current revenue levels. The Department,
15 using the estimates generated in Section 1.20, must
16 determine, before June 30, 2001, what the State use and
17 occupation tax rate on the selling price of motor fuel would
18 have to be for the quarter beginning on July 1, 2001 to bring
19 in the same amount of State use and occupation tax revenue in
20 the quarter beginning on July 1, 2001 as was brought in, on
21 average, during the same quarter in State fiscal years 1999,
22 2000, and 2001. For each quarter thereafter, before the end
23 of the quarter preceding that quarter, the Department must
24 determine what the State use and occupation tax rate on the
25 selling price of motor fuel would have to be for that quarter
26 to bring in the same amount of use and occupation tax revenue
27 in that quarter as was brought in, on average, during the
28 same quarter in State fiscal years 1999, 2000, and 2001.
29 Section 1.30. Rate of State use and occupation taxes on
30 motor fuel. Beginning on July 1, 2001, the use and
31 occupation tax imposed on motor fuel shall be at the rate

15 where property functionally used or consumed is a by-product
16 or waste product that has been refined, manufactured, or

5 Illinois before being brought to Illinois for use here and is
