nitial planning to implement health care reform has already cost Nevadans over $55,000 in staff time, diverting our work away from our core mission of serving Nevadans during this recession. Ongoing planning costs of nearly $22,000 per week are expected with costs only increasing in the future. That’s before we even get to the $574 million in additional Medicaid costs. Harry Reid’s idea of reform might be breaking the backs and bank accounts of hard working Nevadans, but it is not mine. I will continue to fight against this unconstitutional and costly law.” Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons
