Indiana Bears stadium bid in Hammond falters as Illinois advances tax-break plan

TL;DR
Indiana's bid to lure the Chicago Bears to build a stadium in Hammond hit a setback after the Illinois House advanced a Megaprojects Bill that would freeze property taxes and provide big tax breaks for major developments like a stadium in Arlington Heights, potentially making the Bears' Chicago-area plans more attractive and complicating Indiana's push.
