TL;DR Summary

Nevada lawmakers will not move forward with a bill aimed at bringing the Oakland A’s to Las Vegas through public financing of up to $380 million to help fund the construction of a new baseball stadium. However, with backing from Gov. Joe Lombardo, lawmakers could still reconsider a public funding package for the A’s proposed $1.5 billion, 30,000-seat ballpark project on the Las Vegas Strip, which would require a special legislative session. The failure to advance the stadium bill in the regular legislative session does not guarantee the team’s move to Las Vegas, as Major League Baseball owners would still need to approve the relocation, and the A’s would need to prove they have secure financing in place to fund the rest of the proposed development.
