Take action
Two petitions. One goal: Keep the Bears in Illinois.
Directed at: Chicago Bears Board of Directors
Tell the Board: We Don't Support the Hammond Move
"We, the undersigned fans and residents of Illinois, firmly oppose the decision to advance stadium development in Hammond, Indiana. The Chicago Bears are a Chicago institution — not an Indiana franchise. We urge the Board of Directors to pause, return to good-faith negotiations in Illinois, and find a solution that keeps this team where it belongs: in the state where it was born."
Directed at: Gov. Pritzker & Illinois Legislators up for Reelection
Tell Springfield: Call an Emergency Session Now
"We, the undersigned voters and taxpayers of Illinois, demand that Governor Pritzker call an emergency legislative session to resolve the Arlington Heights property tax impasse and pass a meaningful bill to keep the Chicago Bears in Illinois. You failed to act when it mattered. We are watching and we vote. Fix this."
