CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — Surrounded by fifth-graders, Governor Brian Sandoval has signed an emergency bill extending bonds for school construction.
The signing came after weeks of contentious partisan debate over similar legislation that extended school bonds and cut prevailing-wage measures for school construction.
The Senate moved an emergency version of the bill out on Tuesday, and the Assembly voted 27-14 on Wednesday to approve the measure and send it to the governor.
Sandoval the bill would allow school construction to begin nearly immediately.
