CARSON CITY — Las Vegas Assemblywoman Michele Fiore’s tax liens and problems with the IRS were cited in her second removal from Assembly leadership positions Thursday.

Fiore’s removal could clear the way for moderate Republicans to control the Assembly in the 2015 session and eliminate any talk of a GOP-Democratic partnership challenge to the leadership. It could also smooth the way for Gov. Brian Sandoval to win more funding for public education.

Assembly Speaker designate John Hambrick reversed course on Fiore for a second time in recent weeks and removed the controversial lawmaker as majority leader. She has also been removed as chairwoman of the Taxation Committee.

Hambrick said in an announcement that he made the decision because Fiore failed to adequately address her IRS issues.

LOL! (kinda) So, the next legislative session should be interesting since it appears the the local “conservatives” are just as screwed up as the “libs” who ran the place last time. Sheesh. At least they won’t be bothered by any guncontrol legislation thanks to nanny bloomers and his anti gun initiative. Looks like I’ll save a little on gas not running down to CC for open committee hearings this time.

Sounds like the old media and the Left is doing all it can to remove elected conservatives from power.

Or maybe she and Al Sharpton can start a reality show.
