It
is
a
clear
misunderstanding
of
the
journey
that
is
recovery
from
substance
use
disorder
and
on
it
on
the
face
of
it
is
just
inhumane,
particularly
when
you
think
about
temporary
assistance
for
needy
families,
which
is,
of
course,
for
the
whole
family
to
say
that
that
family
is
not
going
to
get
the
basic
support
that
they
need
to
have
food,
shelter
and
clothing.
Because
of
the
substance,
use
disorder.
Related
conviction
of
one
of
the
members
of
the
household
makes
absolutely
zero
sense
to
me.
J
So
I'm
very
proud
that
we
are
now
going
to
recognize
that
for
people
to
move
through
move
forward
with
their
substance
use
disorder
recovery
journey
journey,
they
need
to
have
their
basics,
taken
care
of
food,
shelter
and
clothing
as
in
maslow's
hierarchy
of
needs,
and
I
very
very
much
urge
the
body
to
support
ab

Thank
you
very
much.

Thank

A
teacher's
poem
every
day.
You
greet
your
students
with
a
smile
upon
your
face,
though
paperwork
the
night
before
seemed
like
a
grueling
race.
Kindness
is
your
motivation.
It's
the
love
for
what
you
do.
You
hear
that
special
calling
to
which
you
always
will
say
true
stay.
True,
your
students
are
your
dedication.
Devotion
is
to
them
to
you.
Each
child's
unique
and
special,
a
beautiful
little
gem.
M
Some
days
are
just
demanding
and
frustration
takes
its
course.
Then
you
see
those
little
faces.
Their
inspiration
is
your
force.
Each
day.
You're
in
your
classroom
reminds
you
why
you're
there
making
differences
in
children's
lives
with
whom
your
heart,
you
share,
there's
a
special
pride
in
teachers
and
a
love
for
what
you
do
and
appreciations
always
shared
between
this
legislative
body,
and
you
children
carry
what
they
are
taught
throughout
the
rest
of
their
lives
and
our
teachers
play
a
very
important
role
in
shaping
the
future
from
kindergarten
to
university.
M
Teachers
are
the
ones
who
impart
knowledge
and
teach
us
about
everything.
That's
important
students
will
use
what
they
learn
to
influence
society.
One
day
teaching
is
arguably
one
of
the
most
important
careers
that
exists.
Teachers
give
children
purpose,
set
them
up
for
success
as
citizens
of
our
world
and
inspire
them
to
do
well
and
succeed
in
life.
In
fact,
teachers
inspire
all
other
professions.
M
Everyone
knows
that
the
children
of
today
are
the
leaders
of
tomorrow,
and
teachers
are
the
critical
link
that
makes
a
child
ready
for
the
future.
They
teach
our
youth
during
their
most
impressionable
years,
whether
that's
in
preschool
during
extracurricular
activities
in
team
sports
or
in
the
traditional
classroom,
their
legacy
lives
on.
They
actually
influence
the
type
of
the
world.
We
will
live
in
one
day,
both
on
a
local
and
global
scale.
M
G
Thank
you,
madam
president,
I'll
go
ahead
and
keep
my
remarks
short
and
sweet,
and
I
want
to
mention
that
school
teachers
contribute
so
much
to
our
state
and
their
endless
efforts
to
educate
our
community
is
definitely
undervalued
at
some
point
at
some
at
some
times,
and
you
know
I
am
who
I
am
because
of
the
educators
that
took
the
time
to
listen
to
me
to
push
me
and
to
guide
me
throughout
my
early
years,
and
I
think
it's
safe
to
say
that
we
owe
teachers
a
great
amount
of
gratitude
and
our
words
must
come
with
actions
to
support
and
fund
the
work
that
they
do.
G
I
also
want
to
give
a
quick
shout
out
to
my
cousin,
erica
enriquez,
who
is
a
kindergarten
teacher
in
clark
county
and
like
many
others,
she
had
to
transition
to
a
virtual
classroom
environment
due
to
the
cover
19
pandemic,
and
I
know
this
past
year
hasn't
been
easy
for
them,
and
but
I
salute
our
educators
for
their
resiliency
during
this
moment
and
also,
I
want
to
shine
a
quick
spotlight
on
another
group
of
heroes.
Today
is
national
nurses
day
so
to
all
the
nurses
that
serve
on
the
front
lines
of
this
pandemic.
N
Thank
you.
Madam
president,
I
would
like
to
do
with
some
indulgence.
Take
history
of
a
legacy
that
my
mother
had.
She
grew
up
for
lack
of
a
better
word
on
the
wrong
side
of
the
tracks
and
sparks
and
had
two
dresses
that
was
before
you
were
allowed
to
wear
pants.
She
graduated
from
sparks
high
high
school.
She
ended
up
graduating
from
unr
and
then
went
back
to
teach
at
sparks
high
school
on
further
degrees.
She
became
a
teacher
at
unr
and
she
began.
N
She
even
began
being
an
acting
dean
of
her
college
at
home,
economics
and
family
relations.
N
We
had
eight,
she
had
five
children,
one
of
them
was
me
jill
and
I
have
eight
children
all
clark
county
school
district
graduates
with
college
degrees,
including
a
master's,
a
phd
and
a
jd
three
went
to
unlv
two
went
to
unr
for
living
in
nevada
with
their
children,
and
so
I
have
13
grandchildren
right
now
in
schools
right
here
in
nevada.
N
E
Thank
you.
As
a
retired
teacher
myself,
I
taught
physical
education
and
I
know
the
value
of
teachers
and
what
they
mean
to
our
children.
But
during
this
pandemic
year
our
teachers
have
had
to
learn
new
ways
to
teach
our
children
their
dedication
to
our
the
students.
They
taught
was
visible
every
day,
as
they
use
innovative
techniques
to
motivate
their
students,
and
for
this,
and
so
many
reasons
today,
I
honor
nevada's
teachers.
D
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
I
too
want
to
recognize
the
efforts
of
all
those
teachers
out
there
who
contribute
every
single
day
in
many
ways
their
efforts
go
unnoticed
by
most,
but
by
some
they
are
treasured
for
years
and
years.
I
remember
my
third
grade
teacher
mrs
bomer.
I
remember
we
threw
her
a
party,
I
remember
we
sat
around
and
we
made
her
a
skirt.
Yes,
I
didn't
sew
it,
but
we
made
her
a
skirt.
D
D
It's
teacher
appreciation
appreciation
week
and
that's
the
appreciation.
I
think
that
motivates
most
of
us
to
continue
to
do
what
we
did
or
do
on
a
continual
basis.
There's
nothing
like
getting
that
handwritten.
Note
telling
you
that
you
know
if
it
wasn't,
for
you
being
you
at
the
time
that
you
were
there,
that
their
life
would
have
been
a
lot
different
and
maybe
their
life
wouldn't
have
been
their
life
anymore
and
for
those
teachers
who
are
out
there
on
the
front
line
still
doing
that
with
all
the
other
things
going
on
around
this
world.
O
Thank
you,
madam
president.
Actually
I
just
want
to
do
a
quick
shout
out
to
my
sister
sharon,
armstrong
who's.
Actually,
a
teacher
in
the
henderson
area,
clark,
county
school
district
she's
a
reading
instructor,
but
I
actually
wanted
to
get
a
little
bit
more
on
what
our
colleague
from
district
10
mentioned
today
is
national
nurses
day,
and
I
wanted
to
do
a
first
of
all.
O
I
think
we
should
recognize
that
in
this
covert
window,
the
people,
the
real
heroes
in
this
whole
situation,
have
been
the
nurses
and
doctors
who
literally
risk
their
lives
to
help
and
protect
all
of
us,
and
even
to
this
very
minute.
There
are
those
of
us
who
are
still
frightened
of
that
and
those
people
that
were
in
the
medical
community
had
the
exact
same
fear.
Yet
they
went
to
work
every
single
day
and
of
my
eight
kids,
three
of
them.
O
My
daughter,
sarah,
sarah
hansen
gurys
and
my
daughter,
mallory
mallory,
hanson
reed
and
my
daughter,
larissa
larissa
hansen
brown,
who
will
actually
graduate
formally
on
the
18th
of
this
month,
are
all
registered
nurses.
My
daughter-in-law
ali
hansen
is
also
a
registered
nurse.
My
aunt
pat
davis
and
my
aunt
kathy
david
or
kathy
edwards
excuse
me,
are
also
rns.
O
Two
nieces,
paige
and
kayla
are
also
rns,
but
I
want
to
talk
really
for
a
minute
about
somebody.
I
wanted
to
talk
to
her
talk
about
her
back
in
the
night
2019
session,
but
we
unfortunately
had
a
canceled
national
nurse's
day.
For
some
reason,
I
can't
remember,
unfortunately,
the
nurse
I
want
to
talk
about
passed
away
in
october
of
2019..
O
She
actually
started
her
nursing
career
at
age
12.
I
guess
you
could
say
she
was
a
candy
striper
at
washoe
medical
center,
starting
in
1956
in
1962.
She
graduated
from
the
washoe
western
school
of
practical
nursing
at
washoe
medical
center.
She
earned
her
lpn
at
that
time.
In
fact,
I
have
a
picture
of
this
very
special
woman.
O
O
O
Her
work
career
started
in
1962
at
washoe
medical
center
and
continued
at
washington
medical
center
until
1977
from
1977
to
24
2015..
Excuse
me.
She
worked
as
a
as
a
nurse
both
as
a
floor
nurse
a
supervisor
and
had
a
career
of
over
50
years
serving
as
a
nurse.
I
might
add
in
that
window
of
time
she
had
eight
children,
including
me,
which
she
raised.
O
She
then
went
on
to
be
not
only
a
nurse,
but
she
taught
at
truckee
meadows.
Community
college
for
20
years
taught
nursing
the
cna
program.
There,
literally
thousands
of
students
went
through
her
class
where
they
learned
about
being
caring
and
sensitive
and
to
show
compassion
to
all
the
people.
Who,
frankly,
are
you
know
vulnerable
and
help
how
to
as
a
nurse
to
preserve
the
dignity
of
the
of
their
patients
at
this
most
vulnerable
window
of
time.
O
My
mom,
like
I
said,
passed
away
in
2019,
so
I
didn't
get
the
opportunity
to
honor
her
and
I've
been
disappointed
about
that
ever
since.
So
pardon
me
if
I
show
her
picture
here
today,
but
this
is
an
incredible
woman.
She
had
eight
children
at
her
death.
She
had
46
grandchildren
and
28
great-grandchildren
her
legacy
is
carried
on
by
several
of
members
of
her
family
that
I've
already
mentioned
that
are
stalwart.
Nurses
love
the
program.
These
people
are
heroes.
They
work
for
all
of
us
when
all
of
us
were
scared
to
death
of
the
covid.
O
They
were
on
the
front
lines,
including
including
all
the
people
I
mentioned
earlier,
who
are
still
out
there
doing
those
amazing
jobs
and
they're
following
in
the
legacy
of
their
grandmother
and
their
great
grandmother.
Her
name
was
sharon
riva,
corner
hanson,
and
I
want
to
just
take
a
minute
today
to
honor
my
mom
for
all
her
great
accomplishments
and
her
amazing
family
and
just
a
little
interesting
side.
Note
this
woman
in
this
picture.
This
is
1962.
O
she's,
18
years
old
in
that
picture,
and
she
has
a
son
that
is
three
years
old.
She
had
me
when
she
was
15
years
old,
so
you
know.
Sometimes
people
think
that
life
can
kind
of
can
come
to
an
end
when
there's
some
difficulties,
but
in
fact
she
not
only
overcame
any
difficulties,
but
she
is
honored,
loved
and
revered
by
her
son
who
she
had
when
she
was
15.
That's
me
so
just
want
to
take
a
minute
say
thanks
mom,
thanks
to
all
the
nurses
out
there.
O
I
I
She
taught
until
she
was
32
and
was
made
to
retire
because
they
thought
that
she
was
65.
But
I
like
to
honor
her.
I
also
like
to
honor
my
sister
diane,
who
teaches
a
retired
teacher
in
houston,
texas,
and
wanted
me
back
on
what
my
colleague
was
talking
about.
With
respect
to
the
nurses.
I
want
to
thank
all
the
nurses,
especially
the
boys
that
were
in
that
have
worked
in
icu
during
the
public
endemic.
I
They
put
their
lives
on
the
line
in
their
safety
room
line,
and
many
of
them
left
home
weekly
and
didn't
go
back
until
they
finished
their
shifts
so
that
they
could
protect
their
their
family
members,
and
I
remember
when
I
was
just
about
ready
to
get
released
from
icu
listening
to
the
nurses
and
how
they
lamented
the
people.
I
Number
one
wouldn't
wear,
masks,
masks
and
number
two
how
they
would
probably
as
soon
as
the
new
year
premium
probably
wanted
to
do
more
together,
and
I
remember
hearing
once
they
specifically
if
they
only
knew
what
would
we
have
to
go
through
to
save
their
lives.
So
I
want
to
honor
those
those
nurses
who
put
their
lives
on
the
line,
especially
those
in
the
icu
unit
at
the
va
hospital
when
I
was
in
the
hospital.
Thank
you.
K
K
You
know
you
hold
your
students
in
your
heart
and
you
nurture
their
minds
and
their
souls
and
during
this
most
difficult
year
of
a
pandemic
as
a
teacher,
they
were
out
there
working
so
hard
every
day
and
I
think
that
it's
important
that
we
honor
them
this
week,
because
it
belongs
to
all
the
teachers
out
there
that
have
weathered
the
past
year,
educating,
pre-k,
kindergartners
middle
schoolers,
high
schoolers,
and
even
our
college
kids,
who
are
going
to
become
the
nurses,
the
doctors
and
all
the
other
professions
that
we've
needed
during
this
past
year.
K
A
All
right,
senator
canizaro.
F
A
kid
like
me
who
didn't
have
anyone
in
their
family
who
knew
a
lot
about
education,
but
they
taught
me
a
whole
lot
and
I'm
very
grateful
every
single
day
for
all
of
their
hard
work
and
dedication
to
me
as
a
student,
all
my
other
classmates,
so
definitely
an
amazing
job
that
our
teachers
do
here
in
the
state,
and
I
appreciate
certainly
my
colleague
from
senate
district
14,
sharing
his
his
own
personal
story
and
again
the
thanks
to
all
of
our
nurses
out
there,
keeping
us
safe
on
the
front
lines
for
those
of
you
who
are
interested.
