The Oakland Athletics cleared a major hurdle for their planned relocation to Las Vegas after the Nevada Legislature gave final approval to public funding for a portion of a proposed $1.5 billion stadium.

The deal still needs the governor's signature, and MLB still must approve the A's move from California to the Las Vegas Strip, but both are expected.

The state Assembly approved the final version of the bill with $380 million in taxpayer money on a 25-15 vote after making minor changes to the measure the Senate approved on a 13-8 vote Tuesday.

The A's said in a statement released by the team that they look forward to "Lombardo's signature as our next step" as they "work to bring the Athletics to Las Vegas."
