Gas pumps across Illinois were mandated to have the top sign above, telling drivers that the General Assembly and the Governor suspended the inflation adjustment to the motor fuel tax thru December 31st.

Gas station and c-store owners weren't happy about the mandated move.  They filed suit against the state but apparently lost, as the sign was found posted on gas pumps Friday.

But, the bottom sign expressed the owners' dismay in having to post the state-mandated sign, in essence saying it was a political stunt by the Democrats since the suspension ends December 31st.
