The Chicago Bears had recent meetings with Chicago's Corporation Counsel regarding the terms for a new lakefront stadium, a spokesperson for Mayor Brandon Johnson's Office said. Mayor Johnson has been pushing for the Bears to consider staying in Chicago, clashing with Governor JB Pritzke r, who favors helping the Bears move to Arlington Heights rather than losing them to Hammond, Indiana. This comes as Illinois' megaprojects bill, which could pave the way for an Arlington Heights stadium, is still in limbo.
