Former Illinois governor concerned for taxpayers over subsidies for new White Sox ballpark – WGNTV (Chicago)

Although he’s praised the conceptual renderings, Gov. JB Pritzker said he’s concerned about using public money for the project. And based on what’s leaked out, former Gov. Pat Quinn agrees. “I like Jerry Reinsdorf, who has been a friend for a long time, but I also like the taxpayers of Illinois and the taxpayers of Cook County and Chicago, and they come number one. And so, Jerry, I think, has got to understand that if we’re going to invest in something, this team, the franchise has to put their own money in.”
