Dawn? Her name is Dawn? hmm...
Don't count on it. Gov. Gibbons has been "Mr. No New Taxes" since he was in congress.
The State Assembly is D. The State Senate is D. He proposed to cut $1.5 billion over the next two years (the legislature meets bi-annually) to match decreased revenues.
One of his proposals was to cut state supported higher education 36%. Democrats said no. Gibbons said, "Then you either find the money or cut somewhere else." Tax increases need 2/3 in each house. Ds have it in the Assembly not the Senate.
"No new taxes" is a powerful campaign issue, if it can be backed up. Gibbons can do it.
