Remember to #MaskUpNV this weeks to slow the spread of #COVID19 https://t.co/ZhMvvpv0ri — PolitiTweet.org

This kind of patronizing & condescending treatment toward a member of the Board of Regents (or anyone) is completely unacceptable & deserves to be widely condemned. I expect a swift apology to @Lisa_C_Levine - not that she needs me to request one on her behalf. — PolitiTweet.org

COVID-19 is not a partisan issue and the actions taken by our leaders should solely be focused on saving lives, jobs and businesses. (7/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I’m calling on President Trump to focus on the real threat to the health & lives of Nevadans & Americans: the senseless spread of COVID-19. I’m calling on President Trump to order his campaign to follow our State’s protocols & his own health care experts’ strong guidance. (6/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Yet, President Trump’s own campaign has ignored his experts and state law. This campaign event put more people at risk, including his supporters and the hardworking Nevadans who staffed the event. (5/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Our efforts include heeding the warnings of the President’s Coronavirus Task Force, which has identified Las Vegas as a Red Zone. President Trump’s Task Force echoes the directives we have in place, such as limiting gatherings, mask wearing and social distancing. (4/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Our State & local govt's are focused on mitigation efforts to reduce the spread of #COVID19, particularly in Southern Nevada, where there’s been a resurgence of the virus, & they are trying to balance keeping businesses open, our citizens at work & combating the spread. (3/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I am equally dismayed that the campaign and business defied the State of Nevada emergency directive which limits public gatherings to 50 people or fewer. (2/7) — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I was deeply disheartened and dismayed to see the callous and dangerous behavior displayed last night in Las Vegas at a campaign event for President Trump. (1/7) — PolitiTweet.org

It is legislation like this that will help us weather the storm during these difficult times, collaborate with their landlords to find an alternative means to resolve any disputes, & enable them to stay safely in their homes. This is vital as we remain on our road to recovery. https://t.co/sixfmEzRx0 — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Today, I signed Senate Bill 1, allowing for certain courts to grant stays for certain types of evictions. I am pleased both houses were able to come together quickly to pass this critical measure. https://t.co/oaMEed91Zb — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This moment will not be fleeting & forgotten, it will persist. My administration will continue to pursue change, we will not go back to the status quo & we will continue to listen to those whose voices have been drowned out or forgotten in the past. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This legislation is a step in the right direction, recognizing that the conversations – & the work – must continue. Nevadans should always feel safe in their communities & confident that they will not have to fear for their lives from those that are charged with protecting them. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I made a promise to all Nevadans that I would meet with legislators, elected officials, and community leaders throughout the State to discuss social and criminal justice reforms to ensure we could begin moving to a place where everyone would feel safe in their communities. https://t.co/9UWARyZLHX — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Today I signed Assembly Bill 3, a measure vital in the advancement of social justice reform that includes changes to law enforcement conduct and Senate Bill 2, which rollbacks certain provisions for police officers under investigation. https://t.co/0uSZUXpmtq — PolitiTweet.org

#MaskUpNV thank you @NevadaState ! — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Together, we are taking every action possible to review flagged files for patterns, cut off fraudulent claims and root out bad actors. Together, we will address this problem and together we will get results. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

We have no tolerance for the bad actors who are attempting to take advantage of either the traditional unemployment insurance system or the federally funded Pandemic Unemployment System. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Nevada cannot ignore the US DOL mandate to ensure program integrity & work to prevent & detect fraud across all UI programs, including PUA, which was reportedly the focus of much of the fraudulent activity. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Finally, I know Attorney General Aaron Ford couldn’t be here with us , but I want to recognize his leadership & response to the call to be part of this rapid response effort with regard to the unprecedented level of fraud that is detrimentally impacting the UI program. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I'm grateful to Speaker Buckley and Acting Dir. Cafferata. You have my full support as we bring all state resources to bear to do everything possible to reduce this backlog and respond to the calls for help from those hard-working Nevadans that have not yet been answered. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I am pleased to have her with me today and to have her stepping into this big role. As these two fearless leaders focus on tackling some of the immediate challenges DETR faces, we will also be worked to conduct an in-state and national search for a permanent director. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

As part of our immediate efforts to bring more resources and direction to DETR, I am proud to announce Ms. Elisa Cafferata as the new Acting Director of the Department of Employment, Training, and Rehabilitation. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Her efforts will be focused on immediate action during this short period of time. At my request, she has started and is consulting with experts on improving businesses processes within DETR and potential IT and policy solutions to reduce the backlog. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Here reputation precedes her, and for good reason. Throughout her career, whether in the state Legislature or as the head of Legal Aid of Southern Nevada, Barbara has been a champion of hard-working Nevadans. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

That’s why I'm appointing Barbara Buckley (@bbuckleyad8) to lead a rapid response effort – a strike force – on unemployment insurance. She served w/ great distinction in the Legislature, serving as the Majority Leader of the Assembly from '01-07 & Speaker from '07-10. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

These are huge challenges, but those reasons don’t matter much to those hard-working Nevadans who earned these benefits and are entitled to these benefits. We must do more to get DETR the resources and tools they need to get these benefits delivered. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

We know the State is dealing with an antiquated computer system, a historic unprecedented demand, & fraudulent actors. The federal gov't designed the PUA program, that is susceptible to fraud, and left it up to the states to quickly build new systems to administer the program. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This piece of legislation is not a silver bullet and we know the current situation is not acceptable for those who are eligible for benefits and have been waiting for months for resolution. — PolitiTweet.org
