“We're almost there” on a Bears stadium bill, Rep. Kam Buckner (D-Chicago) told some sports radio hosts on a Friday morning before theHouse returned to Springfield for three days of session last week.“We're very close.”
Asked if the rumor spread by sports business pundit Marc Ganis earlier that week was true about House Speaker Chris Welch holding up the Bears bill, Buckner, the House's point person on the state megaprojects bill that includes the Arlington Heights Bears stadium complex, flatly denied it.
