TL;DR Summary

As Oakland Athletics fans protested against the team's ownership and plans to move to Las Vegas, Nevada's State Senate approved a bill to provide up to $380 million in public funding for a new Major League Baseball stadium on the Las Vegas Strip. The team hopes to build a $1.5 billion stadium on the site of the Tropicana Las Vegas casino and hotel. The bill will be considered by the state's Assembly on Wednesday and, if passed, would be the largest hurdle cleared for the Athletics in their quest to leave their current stadium in Oakland, California.
