Chicago sends letters to hundreds of CEOs in states facing post-Roe abortion bans, pitching values over tax rates to lure businesses

In the wake of the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Chicago fired off hundreds of letters Monday to Fortune 500 CEOs in states facing abortion bans, pitching the city as a more welcoming location for their businesses.

The Guttmacher Institute, a nonprofit research organization that supports reproductive rights, projects 26 states are “certain or likely to attempt to ban abortion” following the Supreme Court ruling, including such longtime Illinois corporate rivals as Texas, Florida, Arizona, Kentucky, Wisconsin and Indiana.

Gov. J.B. Pritzker speaks during a rally at Federal Plaza in Chicago to protest the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade, allowing states to ban abortions, on June 24, 2022.this summer to increase legal protections for providers and potentially expand the ranks of medical professionals allowed to perform abortions as Illinois prepares for an expected influx of out-of-state patients.

Yes, it's a great pitch,,,,'come to Illinois where your employees can kill their babies right up until birth (though we are working on extending that)'.

Why do you even have a comment section, Tribune 😆 It’s always just venomous conservative types with something negative to spout after watching Fox News or reading Breitbart

That's a great pitch... 'We'll kill 'em before our streets do'. Chicago is a dump and deserves the mockery it gets everyday.
