    100% in support of this resolution! Keeping the A's in Oakland should be important to every City Leader. The Oakland A's bring together such a unique and special community, it's hard to even explain. Please support this resolution.

    My name is Nate Carroll-Browne and I am a D5 resident, a lifelong A's fan, and a fifth-generation Oakland resident.

    I want to encourage the council to approve this measure and show MLB that Oakland has a united front in keeping the A's where they belong. Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter!

    My name is Nick Danoff, I'm a co-founder of the Howard Terminal Waterfront Coalition, a group that has been fighting for years to keep the A's in Oakland, and am a D3 resident.

    I want to thank the council for taking up this measure, and encourage every councilmember to approve this resolution and make clear to MLB that Oakland is unanimous in its desire to keep the A's in Oakland.

    This show of support is crucial ahead of the expected MLB relocation vote on Nov 14.

    Thank you!
