Ax the Tax Referendum Update
Upon review of the lawsuit filed a week ago against our tax repeal referendum by friends of Gov. Brian “America’s Worst Governor” SandRINOval’s largest tax hike in Nevada history – including a new gross receipts tax like the one 80 percent of voters rejected at the ballot box last November – we’ll be filing a […]
Lawsuit filed to stop Tax Repeal Referendum
THE EMPIRE STRUCK BACK Busy day today out of the office today, so I’ll make this short and sweet and get into it in more detail later this week. Bottom line: The PAC set up to defend Gov. Brian Sandoval’s $1.4 billion tax hike – including the new gross receipts tax – filed a lawsuit […]
Lawsuit filed to protect Tax Repeal Referendum
They say a good offense is the best defense. As such and on behalf of the We Decide Coalition – plus three conservative members of the State Assembly who voted AGAINST the largest tax hike in Nevada history (SB 483) in the recently-concluded 2015 legislative session – our attorney filed a lawsuit in Clark County […]
Major League Snow Job Forecast to Stop Tax Repeal Efforts
It might still be hot August nights in Nevada, but get ready for the Mother of All Blizzards! No, I’m not talking about that white stuff that falls from the sky on Christmas. I’m talking about the major league snow job – with a blizzard of propaganda – that Gov. Brian Sandoval is about to unleash […]
Nevada Taxpayers should have the Last Word on Largest Tax Hike in history
In 2009, the Nevada Legislature passed a series of “temporary” tax hikes totaling in excess of $600 million. The people of Nevada were promised that those tax hikes would expire, “sunset,” in two years. Instead, the Legislature extended those tax hikes for an additional two years in both 2011 and 2013. In 2014, the teachers union […]
SandRINOval is “Fioreous” over Tax Repeal Referendum
Nevada Gov. Brian “America’s Worst Governor” Sandoval’s initials ain’t B.S. for nuthin’. Indeed, if anyone needs further proof of what a liberal, card-carrying RINO (Republican in Name Only) this guy is, gets a load of what he said about our efforts to repeal his largest tax increase in Nevada history, including the creation of a […]
$1.4 Billion Tax Repeal Referendum filed
Let the games begin! The We Decide Coalition officially hand-delivered a 50-page referendum petition to the Nevada Secretary of State’s office in Las Vegas this afternoon calling for an up-or-down vote by the people of Nevada on SB483. That bill – passed by the 2015 Nevada Legislature and signed into law by Gov. Brian Sandoval – […]
Blame guv, not 120-day session for budget slam-and-jam
Freshman Republican Assemblymen Erv Nelson and Chris Edwards appeared on a local PBS community affairs television show recently and advocated for annual sessions of the Nevada Legislature. As if these people don’t already do enough damage every OTHER year! The reason, according to the pair, is that 120 days is supposedly not enough time to digest […]
Nevada taxpayers unleash fury on Heller’s support for Sandoval
If you want to know the real reason behind RINO Nevada Gov. Brian “America’s Worst Governor” Sandoval’s (R&R Partners) “announcement” this week that he will not be seeking U.S. Sen. Harry Reid’s seat in next year’s election, consider the outrage that continues to pour forth from angry taxpayers in letters-to-the-editor, emails, blog posts and other […]
Jon Ralston’s “Dimwits”
Perhaps the only thing Jon Ralston, Nevada’s #2 liberal blogger-with-a-taxpayer-subsidized-TV-show, hates worse than me, conservative Assemblywoman Michele Fiore and Nevada Republican Party Chairman Michael McDonald combined is the Taxpayer Protection Pledge. And I guess it’s understandable. The vast majority of candidates for public office who sign the Pledge, honor it once elected (exceptions include Nevada […]
The Dirty Dozen and Sellout Seven
Republicans this legislative session had 100 percent control of Nevada’s government for the first time since 1929. They used it in the Assembly on Sunday to shove, by a vote of 30-10, the largest tax increase in Nevada’s history down our collective throats and up our collective wazoos. A $1.5 billion giga-monstrosity that includes a […]
