Doug Oberhelman, Chairman and CEO of Caterpillar Inc...........

I’m pleased to be part of the governor’s new export council, which I hope will help Caterpillar and other Illinois companies increase exports,.....

Unlike some, I do not favor an early rollback of the temporary tax increases in Illinois, but they should expire as planned. Keeping the temporary tax increases in place for now gives the state time to develop a multi-year plan that must balance the state budget.
