Nevada Governor Calls Special Session for Stadium Plan

Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo (R) “issued a proclamation late Tuesday night calling on the Legislature to convene Wednesday morning for a second consecutive special session to discuss a $380 million public financing package to help fund a proposed Las Vegas stadium project for the Oakland A’s,” the Nevada Independent reports.

“Lombardo’s proclamation essentially calls upon lawmakers to reconsider SB509 — which proposed capping public funding at $380 million for the $1.5 billion, 30,000-seat ballpark sought by the A’s — after the bill failed to advance in the final hours of the regular legislative session Monday night.”
