  • Libertarian Party of Nevada Hosted "Speed Dating" Events Over 2 Days at Different Venues in Las Vegas
    Endorsement Committee This year, we formed an Endorsement Committee comprised of 18 members plus additional Libertarian leadership; the “Committee.” The Committee members conducted their own independent research on each of the candidates and asked them questions at our events. The Committee members took notes and made recommendations on grades and endorsements. Endorsement Committee Chair: Jason Weinman Committee Members: Jason G Smith Jim Duensing Jason Nellis Lesley Chan John McCormack JD Smith Lou Pombo Brady Bowyer Scott Lafata Tim Hagan Brett H. Pojunis Brandon Ellyson Debra Dedmon Nick Klein Andrew Lea Ross Williams Tarina Dark Steve Brown Format - Why "Speed Dating?" The Libertarian Party of Nevada hosted "Speed Dating" events over 2 days at different venues in Las Vegas. The goal was to meet as many candidates as possible in a format similar to speed dating. LPNevada endorsed Candidates in non‐partisan races and graded Candidates in partisan races for the 2014 General Elections. Most organizations do not get one‐on‐one interaction with the candidates; we felt this is important. Endorsements and Grading Non‐Partisan candidates received either a positive (thumbs up) or negative (thumbs down) endorsement from the Committee. Partisan Candidates received a grade of 1 to 5 stars. Candidates who received 1 star were not very Libertarian and candidates who received 5 stars were very good in regards to their position on issues important to Libertarians. The Libertarian Party of Nevada has the following 15 Candidate on the 2014 Ballot. Adam Sanacore, Assembly District 21 Lou Pombo, Assembly District 37 Chris Dailey, White Pine County Commission Louis Gabriel, Assembly District 32 Donald W.

  • Review and Discussion Regarding the 2017 Legislative Session with Possible Direction to Staff. (For Possible Action)
    AGENDA ITEM# 12 SUN VALLEY GENERAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT DATE: 2-3-17 TO: Board of Trustees FROM: Darrin Price – General Manager SUBJECT: Review and discussion regarding the 2017 Legislative Session with possible direction to staff. (for possible action). Every two years the Nevada Legislature meets. 2017 is here and it’s that time again. In 2014, the District cancelled its Lobbying contract with Fred Hillerby. At that time the total expenses for the lobbying contract was $1,650.00 dollars a month year round (as to include committee meetings that can and do meet when the session is closed and networking). In February of 2015, the board unanimously approved the General Manager “to act in the lobbying capacity” for the District. Per this direction I have started to assemble a team to assist me with monitoring, tracking, networking, and attending sessions, committee meetings, and general networking to establish relationships with both legislators and their staff. I registered myself, Jennifer, and Maddy as paid lobbyist for this session. The cost to register is $300.00 dollars per person, a total of $900.00 dollars. As a registered lobbyist you can track 10 bills via NELLIS. NELLIS is the Nevada Electronic Legislative Information System. It allows for PLT: What is Personalized Legislative Tracking (PLT)? · PLT allows you to subscribe to BDRs, bills, and budgets that are of interest to you, and subsequently tag and create notes on your subscriptions. · The advantage of PLT is that you will receive immediate notifications of hearings, a daily status notification, and have access to tailored, exportable reports for the subscriptions you have chosen to track.
