Nevada lawmakers may stick to status quo in quest to play nice
Nevada legislators launch their biennial session Monday facing the possibility that little will actually happen.
Gov. Brian Sandoval, who has been a cautious head of state, is facing re-election and might have higher political aspirations, making him loath to propose any sweeping, controversial changes. Democratic leadership is afraid to admit they want to raise taxes, and they don’t have the two-thirds majority to raise money by themselves.
