Nevada revisits Oakland Athletics stadium plan in special legislative session

CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) The Oakland Athletics’ search for a new home drew Nevada lawmakers into a special legislative session Wednesday to weigh whether the state should cover $380 million of the $1.5 billion stadium planned for the Las Vegas Strip.

Representatives from the A's and tourism officials, mirroring many of the talking points from a hearing just over a week ago, pitched the project as an economic success in a late afternoon presentation to senators, who have mostly kept quiet about how they will vote.

The bill has revived the national debate over public funding for private sports clubs. A's representatives and some tourism officials argue the measure could add to Las Vegas’ growing sports scene and act as an economic engine, but a growing chorus of economists and some lawmakers have warned that such a project would bring minimal benefits for a hefty public price tag.
