"Buried in the 375 page Bears stadium amendment is a special tax-incentive for Chicago rail-yard megaprojects, explicitly for the One Central development over the tracks by Soldier Field and a White Sox Stadium in the South Loop."

House votes 78-32 to pass the megaprojects bills

But now the senate will get their whack at it and remains to be seen how the governor and Bears feel themselves about this amended version.

Though I suspect the Bears already have the AH situation sorted

Long way to go. This is just the house vote which may pass if it happens now

Seems like they’re about to vote on it.

The bill has been amended a bunch the last few days. The senate will get their crack at it and who knows what they’ll do to it or how long they’ll take
