Gov. Brian Sandoval has sharply split with fellow Republican Sen. Dean Heller Wednesday over a last-ditch proposal to repeal the Affordable Care Act, joining a bipartisan group of nine other governors in asking Senate leadership not to consider the Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson proposal.

Dan Schwartz, the maverick state treasurer who has made friends and enemies on both sides of the political spectrum through his zeal for an embattled school choice program and outspoken disdain for incentivizing a football stadium and an electric car startup, is running for governor.

Democrats, statist liberals, other leftists and their media echo chamber were in full-throated “sky is falling” mode over the Labor Day weekend about the supposed imminent repeal of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program by President Trump.

First, note this. When you govern with a “pen and a phone”, as former President Obama so famously did when he could not get what he wanted from Congress, a DACA repeal by order of the next president is a potential result. Governing by executive order works only when the next president is going to follow your lead.

The Carson City Republican Women's Club will hold its September meeting on Tuesday, the 19th at the Carson City Nugget. Social time begins at 11:00 a.m. and the meeting is called to order and lunch served at 11:30 a.m.

We want to invite anyone interested in attending the monthly membership meeting for the Carson City Republican Party. We will be featuring Tyler Brennan, General Manager of RISE Dispensary of Carson City as our guest speaker. Tyler will be speaking to our party about his take on some of the recent controversies surrounding marijuana dispensaries locally as well as education on cannabis and what the implementation of NV Question 2 means going forward in both Carson City and Nevada as a whole.

Businessman and longtime office seeker Danny Tarkanian announced Tuesday that he will challenge Dean Heller for his U.S. Senate seat in the Republican primary in 2018.

Arizona’s United States Senator John McCain has been a difficult Republican for libertarian limited-government conservatives like us to embrace. Often, we stand opposite him on important issues of the day. He is too lacking in overarching principle for our taste. James has called on him to retire and actually sided with his Republican primary opponents in 2010 and 2016.
Yet, today we are sad.

Please join the Carson City Republican Women for lunch at the Carson Nugget to hear guest speaker Greg Bailor, Executive Director for the NV Republican Party. We will meet on Tuesday, August 15, 2017 at 11:00 AM for social time and the meeting/lunch will begin at 11:30 AM. The cost

Nevada Sen. Dean Heller and several of his Republican colleagues set aside their lingering concerns with legislation to repeal the Affordable Care Act and voted Tuesday afternoon to allow debate on the bill to proceed.

We want to invite the public to our annual Freedom Fest Event which will be taking place on the evening of Thursday, July 27th beginning at 6:00PM. It will be held at Glen Eagles Restaurant (3700 N Carson Street, Carson City, NV 89706).

For now, this is the last regular column that will carry the Ron and Geoff byline. Geoff is leaving the Assistant Controller’s job July 1 for a new one.

James Smack, the Deputy Controller, will join Ron in the weekly column beginning next week. Geoff will make guest appearances now and then, we anticipate.

Widely considered a key swing vote in Republican efforts to replace the Affordable Care Act, Sen. Dean Heller said Friday that he cannot support a recently released Senate revision to the healthcare law as written.

The Georgia-6 special election turned out to be a media headfake. Karen Handel, the former Republican Secretary of State with universal name recognition in a deep red district, eeked out a 3.2-point victory over Jon Ossoff, a 30-year-old Democrat with no experience in elective office and no prior name recognition, and who didn't even live in the district. This narrow victory was described as a "Democratic defeat," which is a little much considering that Georgia-6 has been Republican since the 1970's.

On May the 4th, the House of Representatives passed their version of health care reform (H.R. 1628) without a single hearing or any input from the Democratic minority. The vote was 217 to 213. All 193 Democrats voted no, as did 20 Republicans:

All are welcome!!

During the fall of 1983, my friend - a journalist, columnist, editor, hurmorist, speechwriter and political strategist - Chris Schaller introduced me to a man, he cited, as the smartest politician ever. Tom Fettic. And Christy, as you know, had previously worked with some of Nevada's very best.

Upon Christy's untimely death, in Februrary 1984, Tom was "politically bequeathed" to me for his '84 election to the Carson City Board of Supervisors, his '88 re-election, as well as his '94 election to the Nevada Legislature as our State Assemblyman.

The Lyon County Republican Central Committee will hold its next meeting on
Saturday, June 3, 2017 at Commissioner's Chambers, 27 S. Main, Yerington, NV. The meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. The public is encouraged to attend and learn more about grassroots politics. It is also an opportunity to meet with our local and state Republican officials.

The public is invited to the regular monthly meeting of the Carson City Republican Party which will be held at Silver State Charter High School, 788 Fairview Dr Carson City, NV.

The doors are open at 6:30PM for a social half hour then the meeting begins at 7:00PM.

We will be having the Executive Director of the Nevada Republican Party as our guest speaker and he will be covering a wide range of political topics including what we will be doing in the upcoming year and plans for the 2018 midterm elections.

Hope to see you there!

It looks like liberals are now in the business of using billboards to promote their delusions. They have hijacked the truth and put it on Interstate 580 for everyone to see with a billboard making the ridiculous claim that Senator Dean Heller voted to allow companies to purchase your Internet browsing history.

This claim is a far cry from the truth. All the Republican-controlled Congress did is restore the rule of law by repealing the political favoritism of the Obama Administration's regulatory overreach. Your privacy is still intact and the liberals know it.

Elections were held for the Executive Board of the Carson City Republican Party on Thursday night, April 27th. The following are the new Executive Board for the Carson City GOP:
