Thank
you,
madam

just
a
question
to
the
sponsor
of
the
bill.
Over
the
weekend.
I
was
talking
to
some
attorney
friends
who
suggested
that
the
attorney
general
needs
this
or
that
the
bill
suggests
that
the
attorney
general
needs
this
authorization
in
order
to
obtain
certain
subject
matter,
expertise
and
advice
on
things
that
they
may
not
normally
deal
with,
but
that
there
is
the
potential
or
raise
the
question
of
a
potential
for
money
changing
hands.
I
G

A
B

you,

done
so
for
a
very
specific
purpose

is
not
used

clear,
create
leverage
in
the
marketplace.

debt.
This
bill
is
effective
july.
1St
2021.
F
Hey,
madam
president,
I
certainly
think
that
it's
laudable
to
try
to
add
perceived
protections
to
consumers.
However,
the
reality
is
in
this
case
the
consumers
are
already
notified
and
this
further
burdens
the
collection
of
debt
for
medical
providers
and
that's
only
going
to
work
to
drive
up
ultimate
costs.
So
I
will
be
a
no
on
this.
Thank
you.
B
A
B
I
Thank
you.
Madam

senate
bill
249

professional

certify
that
a
child
is
not
able
to
attend

that

is
inadvisable.

The

also
prohibits
an
excused
absent
due

physical

condition

behavioral
health
from
having
a
negative
effect
on
a
child's
or
a
school's
accountability
rating.
Finally,

bill

requires
the
board
of
trustees
of
a
school
district
or
the
governing
body
of
a
charter
school
to
ensure
that
the
back

Thank
you,
president
senate
bill.
68
revises
various
provisions
governing
the
investment
of
certain
money
held
by
our
state
specifically
senate
bill
68
eliminates
the
prohibition
against
investment
of
the
state's
general
portfolio
in
a
reverse
repurchase
agreement.
The
measure
increases
from
50
million
dollars
to
75
million
dollars
the
maximum
amount
of
money.
The
state
treasurer
is
authorized
to
transfer
from
the
state
permanent
school
fund
to
a
corporation
for
public
benefit,
to
provide
private
equity
funding
to
businesses
engaged
in
certain
industries
that
are
located
or
seeking
to
locate
within
the
state.

Thank
you,
mr
president,
this
this
specific
provision
of
this
bill
comes
back
to
a
measure
that
we've
originally
approved
in
2011
to
allow
these
investments
in
out
of
the
permanent
school
fund.
It's
been
a
successful
investment
portfolio
for
nevada-based
companies
and
has
actually
created
positive
returns
over
that
time
for
the
nevada
school
fund
in
excess
of
what
they've
received
from
their
other
investments.
Thank
you.

Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
want
to
remind
everybody
that
today
is
the
international
day
of
human
space
flight.
I
don't
think
there's
anything
quite
like
the
the
idea
of
floating
in
space.
To
sort
of
you
know
ignite
the
imagination
of
the
people.
It
was
the
international
day
of
human
space
flight
takes
place
on
april
12
2021,
because
on
the
same
date,
in
1961
yuri
gregarian,
a
russian
astronaut
was
the
first
human
being
space
flying
a
human
being
space
flying,
but
we've
had
several
remarkable
incidences.
Since
then,
I
can
remember
1984.
K
many
of
us
still
remember
the
picture
of
astronaut
bruce
mccandless
out
there
floating
tetherless
away
from
the
space
shuttle.
It
was
the
first
time
that's
ever
happened.
I
think
there's
nothing
quite
like
that
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we
remind
or
we're
reminded
of
that
on
this
day.
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
president.
