EMBATTLED LAWMAKER: Wendell Williams
During the fall of 2003, Assemblyman Wendell Williams was at the center of scandals that led to his exclusion from interim legislative committee assignments and his firing from his full-time job with the city of Las Vegas Neighborhood Services Department. Investigations involving Williams also led to the firings of Assemblyman Kelvin Atkinson and Assemblywoman Kathy McClain from their full-time jobs with Clark County and the removal of Community College of Southern Nevada President Ron Remington and college lobbyist John Cummings.
