PAUL BOGER: The speaker and the governor talked about lawmakers really focusing on pandemic relief and trying to help Nevadans through this pandemic. Where is the legislature on those bills, on that pandemic relief, and what more is going to come out of the session, do you think?
TERESA BENITEZ-THOMPSON: The conversation we re going to be having is about the Governor s Office of Economic Development and abatements, because we know that we have different areas of the state that are struggling with record numbers of unemployment, and then different areas of the state that are not. So we really need to focus on and target our communities who are going to take the longest to recover. So we see that conversation as being very important to how Nevada recovers.
From police reform to pandemic response, the changes to Utah policies made by lawmakers during the annual legislative session that ended in March will begin on Wednesday.
