Over the past week, there’s been plenty of news (and sports talk) regarding a bill being advanced by some members of the Kansas Legislature that is intended to lure as many as two professional sports teams — particularly the Kansas City Chiefs — to new facilities that would be built in Kansas.
Originally introduced by state representative Sean Tarwater — who represents the Kansas City suburb of Stillwell — the bill did not come to a vote during the legislature’s most recent session that ended May 1. The legislature could consider it during a special session focused on tax cuts, which is set to begin on June 18.
