YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Chicago Bears are one step closer to potentially building a new stadium in Hammond, Indiana, after a key state committee approved a framework bill Thursday morning.
The Indiana House Ways and Means Committee unanimously approved a stadium framework bill that lays the groundwork for a potential deal between the state and the Bears.
Gov. Mike Braun said Indiana has identified a promising site near Wolf Lake in Hammond and has set up a broad structure to negotiate a final agreement.
"Indiana is open for business, and our pro-growth environment continues to attract major opportunities like this partnership with the Chicago Bears," Braun said in a statement.
"The State of Indiana moves at the speed of business, and we’ve demonstrated that through our quick coordination between state agencies, local government, and the legislature to set the stage for a huge win for all Hoosiers. We have built a strong relationship with the Bears organization that will serve as the foundation for a public-private partnership, leading to the construction of a world-class stadium and a win for taxpayers."
The Bears called the passage of SB 27 "the most meaningful step forward in our stadium planning efforts to date."
