The Nevada Legislature will be meeting to look at new bills that involve education and marriage age restrictions. Governor Sisolak has also requested to meet with the White House about the plutonium shipments sent to Nevada.
The implication of a revised funding formula is that school districts and
teachers will receive substantially more money. But revising the funding formula will only
rearrange who gets the existing money. In 2016, Nevada’s smallest five school districts received
less than $15 million in state funding. That’d barely be a rounding error in the Clark County
School District’s $2.4 billion budget.
Some Nevada Democrats aren’t satisfied with having a Democrat governor and large legislative
majorities. They also want to ignore the constitution to make it easier to raise taxes.
Democrats have full control in Carson City, and they’re eager to reward their union allies with power and costly perks. Gov.

Record Democrat turnout doomed Nevada Republican candidates in last month’s election. That turnout was driven, in part, by the left’s dislike for President Donald Trump. Trump’s campaign needs to make an early investment in Nevada to be competitive in 2020. That’s all according to Robert Uithoven, a Republican political consultant.
Steve Sisolak is promising to use his new offices to implement Nevada’s stalled background
check initiative. He hasn’t said , however, how he’s going to do it. There’s a reason for that. He
