Dear
Friends,
As you all
know, I strongly believe that our legislative
system needs to be more transparent. Nothing bothers me more than a
candidate running
for office on a set of values and then, once elected, turning against their
word. There has been a lot of attention on Governor Brian Sandoval for his
major tax flip-flop this session when he introduced Senate Bill 252.
Today, I
would like to turn the spotlight to Senator Greg
Brower for his massive change of heart regarding AB 148, campus carry.
Earlier
this week, the senator who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee informed
me
that he would not be hearing Assembly Bill 148. This is strange to me
because
in 2011 Senator Brower had no problem voting in favor of campus carry bill,
SB
231. For a complete list of Senators who voted in favor of campus carry in
2011

Assembly
Bill 148 is currently in the Senate Judiciary
Committee awaiting a hearing. I brought this bill back this session because
I
believe that Nevadans should have the right to choose how to defend
themselves.
Although this bill has been nicknamed the campus carry bill, I would like
to
remind everyone that the bill will also allow concealed carrying in any
public
building that does not have a metal detector.
If you
believe that
we should honor our second amendment rights and support AB 148, please
contact
Senator Greg Brower today to urge him to stand by his Republican values and
support
AB 148.
Senator
Brower can be reached at 775-684-1419.
Saturday,
tune into KDWN 720 AM from 9am -10am for “Walk the
Talk with Michele Fiore”. We have a very exciting show this week.
Assemblymen
John Moore and Brent Jones will be joining me to talk about the unforeseen
turn
of events in the Republican-run Nevada government this session. We will
also be
talking about the Clark County School System’s failed audit, where
they could
not account for $381 million taxpayer dollars. Then, Assemblyman John Moore
will be giving a first hand account of the uproar that occurred on the
floor
during the hearing of AB 91, regarding involuntary commitment. If you
thought
my outburst was bad, you won’t want to miss this!
I am
dedicated to making sure you know what is going on here
in Carson City. I believe that as elected officials we have a
responsibility to
be transparent and stay loyal to our running platforms. As for my fellow
peers,
if you can’t walk the talk, I will hold you accountable.
