Resolution 2016-C101
The Nevada Republican Party Honors Legislators Loyal
to the Platform in the 2015 Legislative Session
Whereas, The citizens of Nevada clearly made their will known for low taxes in the Nevada Republican Platform and the November 2014 defeat of the Margins Tax; and
Whereas, Elected officials form an implicit covenant with the people upon the assumption of their office, we expect them to remain loyal to the will of the people and exercise fiscal responsibility; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Nevada Republican Convention offers its highest appreciation and respect for our legislators in the 2015 Nevada Legislative Session who honored the will of the people by fighting against an unnecessary and punitive tax increase; and we denounce legislators who voted for or approved the commerce tax;
Resolved, That we encourage all Nevada legislators to pursue responsible fiscal behavior and tax policies in the pursuance of a vibrant Nevada economy; and
Resolved, That the Nevada Republican Convention directs the Secretary to distribute this resolution to Republican members of the Legislature, appropriate media, and ensure it is posted on the state party website.
