AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Illinois Budget & Taxes: Illinois lawmakers wrapped a spring session budget around $56B, adding new taxes tied to digital services and gaming while leaving some major items unresolved—especially the Bears stadium fight. Bears Stadium Standoff: The megaprojects-style stadium push stalled in the Illinois House, keeping Indiana in play and leaving Chicago’s incentives plan in limbo. Insurance & Consumer Protection: Illinois courts blocked parts of the state’s credit-card swipe fee and card-fee limits, while insurers also face new rate-review oversight. Workplace Leave: A new Illinois law starting June 1 gives parents unpaid, job-protected NICU leave (up to 10 days for smaller employers and 20 for larger ones). Cyber Insurance Scrutiny: A Chicago IT CEO warns cyber claims are often denied when organizations can’t prove full MFA/2FA coverage. Local Business & Compliance: Hancock County had to amend its solar siting ordinance to match state rules by June 1, including a debated “acts of God” clause. Sports Business: The FCC opened the AWS-3 spectrum auction, including Chicago-area markets—another signal of ongoing telecom infrastructure investment.
