@HOPEforNevada Yup, always gotta be wary of budget amendments late into Day 120.....and also of that guy "Jake from State Farm!"😜

[Dena Durish @dmdurish]

@JordanaMcCudden @fortiz505 @KirstenSearer @Thompson4AD17 @NVBats Agreed @JordanaMcCudden. Listened to many RBG3 hearings (since 2015 inception, in 2017, & now this session!) But since things move so quickly in final week, I need check final amends. Does language clarify funding for “full-time FTE” Strategist at each school?
