Pritzker said the Bears need to have more conversations with lawmakers who balked at the idea of giving funding to the team for infrastructure, as well as those opposed to giving the Bears lower property tax rates to incentivize them to move to suburban Arlington Heights.
“They need to begin conversations with members of the legislature that they weren’t able to win over before,” he said.
The governor also argued the state is still well-positioned to make a stadium project happen, and pushed back on the idea that Indiana is in the lead after their legislature passed a bill aimed at luring the Bears to the Hoosier State.
