A key player who helped the Oakland Athletics land up to $380 million in public financing for a $1.5 billion Las Vegas ballpark isn’t concerned about a push by state educators to stop the funding from being awarded.
Last month, the Nevada State Education Association filed paperwork to form a political action committee aimed at doing anything it could, including potential litigation and/or bringing the issue to a public vote, to void the hundreds of millions of dollars Senate Bill 1, which was signed into law last month, would provide the team.
The state’s largest teachers union, the Clark County Education Association, later said it did not support the state group’s effort.
