Congressman Heller to address Northern Nevada Development Authority
U.S. Congressman Dean Heller, R-Nev., who represents Nevada's 2nd District, will discuss his priority to turn the economy around and get Nevadans back to work during a breakfast hosted by the Northern Nevada Development Authority. The event will be at the Carson Nugget, 507 N. Carson St., Carson City on Thursday, April 8, 2010. Doors open at 7 a.m. and includes a buffet breakfast.
The congressman will discuss the stimulus plan and how 3 million jobs have been lost since its passage, according to a press statement.
"By adopting pro-growth policies that expand tax relief across the board and allow Americans to keep more of what they earn will lead to job creation and economic prosperity in the future. Capitalism is the foundation of America’s prosperity and these principles should be embraced," according to the statement.
Additionally, Heller will address illegal immigration and its affects on education, health care, and law enforcement.
Heller serves on the House Ways and Means Committee, which is the chief tax-writing committee of the United States House of Representatives and has jurisdiction over all taxation, tariffs and other revenue- raising measures, as well as Social Security, unemployment benefits, and Medicare. The Ways and Means Committee is one of only four exclusive committees in the U.S. House of Representatives. As a former member of the House Natural Resources Committee, Heller is still actively engaged in policies under this Committee’s jurisdiction. Issues such as mining, public land management and preventing wildfires still continue to be top priorities for Congressman Heller, according to the statement.
The cost is $20 per person with reservation and $35 at the door. RSVP on-line or visit www.nnda.org. For questions, call (775) 883-4413.
