 Nevada Senate Leader Removes It from Calendar

SB 223 was a bill that essentially would declare Nevada a "sanctuary" state. 

Its chief architect, in addition to the Senate Majority Leader, Aaron Ford, was...

 Senator Yvanda Cansela 
(D-Las Vegas)

...and was jointly sponsored by 12 others in the Nevada state government.

Anthem Opinions took a deep look at this and other proposed legislation that many Nevadans were unaware existed. 

We strongly believed...

As you can see, we "struck a cord", and pursued this with all the Henderson Mayoral candidates, asking their opinion in this matter.

Each graciously shared their views...so much so...that this measure was a topic of primary concern during the recent Mayoral Debate on March 27th at the Convention Center in downtown Henderson.

In addition many others who call Nevada their home,  would subsequently comment how negatively they would be affected by the passage of this legislation.

Even The Las Vegas Review Journal became aware of the issue along with other political figures...

... and the subsequent enormous backlash of those who opposed it, greatly assisted its defeat.

This was not merely a Republican or Democratic issue, though sponsored in its entirety by members of the Democratic Party....

...this was a "people" issue that required disclosure in order that they could voice their concerns.

It would go far beyond being a simple "issue".

Instead it became a matter of "lifestyle" and preserving a retirement quality that so many of us believed we were entitled to, after years of hard work, raising families, and saving funds in order to be independent, not being a burden to future generations.

So...to those who took the time to contact the legislators to share their views, we strongly believe...

 YOU SAVED NEVADA

Thank you.

  1. Have these politicians no shame??? Clearly an attempt to get a few more votes come next election (or is the California Lunacy gradually contaminating our State?). Unfortunately - and please correct me if I am wrong - Las Vegas is a 'Sanctuary City' ... an absolutely STUPID thing to do considering that Tourism is their #1 source of revenue.
    1. From Mike V...to...Anthem Opinions

      Lets also not forget the so called elected leaders that supported that monstrosity when election time comes up!
    2. Yes Mike...and we have one who will shortly make his annual recommendations for our Sun City Anthem Board of Directors...

      ...and history dictates that the results of his "chosen ones" are every bit as pathetic as these who supported a "Sanctuary State".

      Then again, my guess is that cronyism is alive and well and living in the minds of all who find his choices have any viable credibility.

      Then the results come in, then the disaster begins.

      The expenses mount up, the dues increase, and before you know it, if history is any indication, you will never hear a word as to the costly errors and waste that exist as a result of his "chosen ones."

      If anything, he'll likely recommend they be re-elected.

      I can't wait to see his glowing recommendation of Rex Weddle, the guy who has lied to the SCA residents regarding the construction default suit and recently stated...

      Bella Meese, Tom Nissen, and Bob Burch will be heading up a new restaurant advisory group.

      The first two gave away the store in the last venture with the unsecured loans costing residents $40,000, and the third choice, well, a guy whose true calling in life should have been a bobble head figure sitting in the rear of an automobile wagging agreement at anything the first two came up with.

      Do any have any experience in the restaurant business? 

      Of course not. That's what makes them "experts" and the perfect choices to head up this newest joke that is anticipated to cost SCA around $200,000 to $300,000 per year...

      ...so a few can have a place to eat.

      That's what they and the blogger have in common: inexperience, lack of common sense, and success at losing money.

      Oh well, at least the people outside our community were start enough to see how "valuable" a "Sanctuary State" would be.
