A plan to put $750 million in hotel tax dollars toward an NFL stadium in Las Vegas has cleared the Nevada Legislature and heads toward final review from a supportive governor.

The Nevada Senate approved an amendment Friday after both the Senate and Assembly backed a bill by at least two-thirds. It will raise hotel taxes in the Las Vegas area by up to 1.4 percentage points to help fund the stadium and a convention center expansion.
