I've been clear even since the Hammond announcement, quote unquote, that there were still conversations going on between the organization and the state of Illinois.
And those conversations do continue.
I think if you go back and you look at what they said a few weeks ago, it wasn't anything that was conclusive, right?
They didn't say we're done here, we're moving forward.
And so those conversations have continued and they've continued in earnest.
There's been
calls for a special session.
But as Governor Pritzker said in your bumper segment, that we've got to be able to agree on a deal before we call a special session.
That has to happen first.
But we've got some time to figure that out and to get there.
So I think that we are moving forward.
In the right direction.
The new report is that the Bears are working on their own piece of legislation for this, which I think makes all the sense in the world.
As you guys know, in a former life, I did government affairs for the Chicago Cubs during the Renovation Project.
And we didn't ask the city council to give us a plan.
We brought a plan to them.
And some things they said yes to, other things they said no to, and we worked our way through it.
But that's the way this thing works.
And so I think we're in a good kind of portion of this conversation.
