During the final hours of the session, the Democratic supermajority in the Illinois House allowed lawmakers to vote three times on a single piece of legislation aimed at raising taxes. This move broke their own House Rules.

The Caucus Blog of the Illinois House Republicans commented on the situation: "Breaking their own rules, Democrats raise taxes."
