Could you own a piece of the Dodgers?

The public would be allowed to purchase shares in the Dodgers and other professional sports teams under federal legislation introduced Thursday by Rep. Janice Hahn and an Oregon lawmaker. Daily News.

Hahn, D-Wilmington, acknowledged that even if the bill were to pass, it probably wouldn't be in place in time to affect the expected bankruptcy auction of the Dodgers.

"Introducing this shows there could be a way in the future to have more fan involvement," Hahn said. "Clearly, this is bigger than the Dodgers. While it might not pass in time for when the Dodgers are sold, it might affect some future sale."
