Bears stadium fail wasn’t Pritzker’s only fumble — his affordable housing plan also went nowhere

Gov. JB Pritzker's efforts to keep the Bears in Illinois and pass the BUILD affordable housing plan failed due to opposition from local government leaders. The BUILD plan aimed to streamline housing development but stalled in the legislature, with critics citing preemptive state control over local zoning. Pritzker remains determined to push the plan during a fall veto session.
