SPRINGFIELD, Ill. Early Monday, the Illinois Senate approved a 37-17 measure to allow municipalities to form stadium authorities capable of financing and operating professional sports venues, but the Illinois House adjourned without voting on the proposal after an overnight session. The amendment, filed late Sunday as part of House Bill 958, seeks tax-exempt mechanisms for a potential Bears stadium. The session ended with lawmakers saying discussions will continue into the summer as officials finalize evaluations of Arlington Heights and Hammond; the Bears have not publicly endorsed the new Senate-passed measure. Indiana previously outlined a $2 billion Bears contribution and $1 billion in state bonds for a Hammond project, and the bill could take effect June 1, 2027, if enacted.
