Letter: Voting for GOP sealed Nevada’s nuclear future

Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2002 | 8:48 a.m.

I visit your state a few times a year -- Las Vegas, Reno and the Tahoe area. It's beautiful and I love it, and hopefully I'll retire to Nevada.

This nuclear waste thing sickens me. Well, folks, keep voting those GOPers into power. See where it got you.

Thank God for Sen. Harry Reid, who will try to lead the charge to stop it. Let Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham put the dump in his home state of Michigan or, better yet, "Dubya" and his Texas cronies could put it near his ranch in Crawford.
