Chicago Mayor Johnson Attacks Bears Stadium Deal: ‘The Bears Belong in the City of Chicago’

TRANSCRIPT:

I believe what’s being bandied about right now in Springfield is centered around providing some property tax incentive for corporations at a time in which everyday working people are not receiving property tax benefit or relief. To offer that up to corporations, those are literally public dollars benefiting corporations. That is what I’ve heard Springfield did not want to do. Right? So I think it’s actually counterintuitive.”
