Nevada lawmaker wants to curb one of the president’s powers over public land

Presidential candidate Donald Trump held a rally Friday at the Expo World Market Center, where he highlighted his economic policies.

The rally came just days after the first and possibly only presidential debate with Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris as the candidates, and just a day after Trump announced his pledge to end taxes on overtime pay.

When he visited Las Vegas in June, he announced his “no tax on tips” plan, which other political candidates have signed onto as well, including Harris and Nevada Democrats.

Nevada GOP Senate candidate Sam Brown appeared alongside the former president at the rally.

He last visited Las Vegas at the end of August, where he thanked Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his endorsement.
