Gov. Brian Sandoval has budgeted $60 million for the Education Savings Account program. I’m wondering where this money is coming from. Is it being cut from another service since it can’t come out of the public education fund? Or is it a new tax? What state service(s) would be cut or where would the new tax be assessed?

So far the only tuition that has been paid by this act has been for the lawyers’ kids.

Bruce Feher Las Vegas

I’ve lived in Southern Nevada since 1996, and school zones are invisible to many drivers. It seems that the casual attitude of local officials hasn’t helped much.

The issue is that the Las Vegas casinos are no longer fun. It certainly is time for another reinvention.
