Advocates, service providers, parents and clients turned out today to call attention to the devastasting cuts in a press conference and rally organized by the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada. Those who turned out included the Nevada Women's Lobby, League of Women Voters, AAUW, High Sierra Industries, AFSCME, Nevada PEP, Washoe ARC and numerous parents and others who are directly affected by cuts. The turnout was inspiring and we're looking forward to follow-up rallies as we move into the regular session. We heard from a lot of people who could not make it in person who said they will be contacting their legislators- this is equally effective. To find your legislator's contact information, go to http://www.leg.state.nv.us/.
