Responding to a letter the governor sent this week -- and posted on this blog -- in which he said the executive branch was going to refuse lawmakers' request for information, implying they had no authority to do so, lawmakers have responded in kind. The quartet of leaders -- two Republicans and two Democrats -- say the governor, by refusing to comply, is violating the Constitution.
Methinks this is going to court.
The letter is at right.
How many of them "legislators" voted for the clown in 06
Hmmm, looks like Carson City wants to take the title of Entertainment Capital of the World away from Las Vegas, Mayor Goodman notwithstanding (and I like Goodman).
We recently bought a house in Nevada so I don't know much about Nevada politics but such an act by a governor makes me wonder if he is a Republican or Democrat. I think either way if much of this true he will not be re-elected unless he changes his behavior regarding transparency and all that goes with more honest, openness in politics. There just must be more to this than I have read here.
It says two Republicans signed the letter. I read the letter. Those are not Republicans. Not real Republicans anyway.
The IFC is, and has been, over stepping its authority for some time now. The IMF does not a represent the entire legislature and is there only to keep the financial business of the state rolling between legislative sessions; they are essentially an ad hock committee with questionable authority. They seem to think they are a governing body with the power to order the executive branch to do their bidding, however they do not have a constitutional mandate to do so. It's about time to give the IFC a sanity check.
