 8        "(35 ILCS 630/4) (from Ch. 120, par. 2004)
 9        Sec. 4.  Until December 31, 1997, a tax is  imposed  upon
10    the  act  or  privilege  of  originating  in  this  State  or
11    receiving  in  this  State interstate telecommunications by a
12    person in this State at the rate of 5% of  the  gross  charge
13    for  such  telecommunications  purchased  at  retail  from  a
14    retailer by such person.  Beginning January 1, 1998, a tax is
15    imposed  upon  the  act  or  privilege of originating in this
16    State    or    receiving    in    this    State    interstate
17    telecommunications by a person in this State at the  rate  of
18    7%  of the gross charge for such telecommunications purchased
19    at retail from a retailer by such person.  To prevent  actual
20    multi-state  taxation of the act or privilege that is subject
21    to taxation under this paragraph, any  taxpayer,  upon  proof
22    that  that  taxpayer  has paid a tax in another state on such
23    event, shall be allowed a credit against the tax  imposed  in
24    this  Section  4  to  the  extent  of  the amount of such tax
25    properly due and paid in such other state.  However, such tax
26    is not imposed on the act or privilege to the extent such act
27    or privilege may not, under the Constitution and statutes  of
28    the  United  States,  be  made the subject of taxation by the
29    State.  Beginning  on  January  1,  2001,  prepaid  telephone
30    calling    arrangements    shall    not     be     considered
31    telecommunications subject to the tax imposed under this Act.
32    (Source: P.A. 90-548, eff. 12-4-97.)"; and
 
                            -3-            LRB9113151SMdvam01
 1    on page 23, by replacing lines 12 and 13 with the following:
 2    "be  subject  to  the  tax  imposed  under this Section.  For
 3    purposes of this Section,".
