(Annie Black) – Short and sweet today… I’m not giving up on my efforts to get the Nevada Legislature opened to the public for the ongoing session. If it was safe to do this at a Las Vegas resort this weekend… We CAN safely reopen the People’s House to the people! If you agree, please […]

(Annie Black) – As I reported to you yesterday morning, Democrats tried to kill my bill (ACR2) calling for the Legislature to end Gov. Sisolak’s “Declaration of Emergency” by placing it on the Chief Clerk’s desk rather than assigning it to a committee for hearing. So I prepared to go on the floor of the

(Annie Black) – I told you I wouldn’t quit.  And I haven’t. And Democrat-Socialist Assembly Speaker Jason Frierson and Democrat-Socialist Majority Leader Teresa Benitez-Thompson (MLTBT) are having a cow over it… While Republican Minority Leader Robin Titus sits on the sidelines watching the parade go by. (sigh) In case you just joined us, here’s a

(Annie Black) – First, today marks the one-year anniversary since I officially filed to run for the Nevada State Assembly – just four days before Gov. Sisolak shut the state down. Some think, because of COVID, I picked a lousy time to run.  And let’s face it, it’s been a challenge.  But if I had

Yet Nevada’s legislative leaders are are still

(Annie Black) – On Tuesday morning, Colton Lochhead of the Las Vegas Review-Journal tweeted… “Some fireworks on the Assembly floor just now. Freshman GOP Assemblywoman Annie Black was speaking about why she believes the NV Legislature building should be reopened to the public, and then called for a motion to reopen the building, seconded by

(Annie Black) – Our friend and conservative champion Janine Hansen of Nevada Families for Freedom has published an excellent step-by-step guide for how you can participate in the legislative process even as legislative leaders continue to ban the public from entering the building… Simple Step by Step Instructions Go to leg.state.nv.us You must know the

(Annie Black) – On December 21st I wrote the following about the Democrats’ dead-of-night bill (AB4) during the special session back in August that completely undermined the security of our elections in Nevada… “AB4 was sold to us as just an ‘emergency’ measure due to COVID-19, but you can bet some legislators are going to

(Annie Black) – Seems I hit a raw nerve! Last week, I asked your opinion on the idea of completely repealing the state business license.  The responses have been overwhelmingly in favor (see a sampling below in the AnnieGram Mailbag). Only four other states require a state business license…and Nevada’s fee is the highest. The
