LVGEA Invites Educators Collaborate to Improve K-12 Education

The Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance today announced its opposition to the proposed margins tax (Question 3 on the November ballot), acting after its executive committee voted to strongly oppose the tax. While the organization further outlines reasons for opposing the tax in as a Las Vegas Review Journal opinion-editorial you will see below, in summary, the executive committee notes that this proposed 2 percent business margins tax would hurt LVGEA’s economic and community development efforts if voters approve it this November. 

That said, the LVGEA executive committee also concurred that a strong education system is vital to a strong economy. Therefore, the LVGEA has asked educators, including the teachers union, to collaborate with us to find solutions for our education system.
