Throughout the year, the Economic Club of Las Vegas hosts a number of prominent speakers from the business, economic, and political arenas. Recently, on January 7, 2016, the organization brought former Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley to Las Vegas’ Caesars Palace to speak as part of its U.S. Presidential Candidates Speaker Series. O’Malley, a Democrat who served as the governor of Maryland from 2007 to 2015, officially announced his candidacy for the 2016 presidential nomination in May of last year. During his address to the Economic Club, the presidential candidate discussed his economic plan to make the American Dream a possibility for all Americans. A nonpartisan organization, the Economic Club of Las Vegas has extended speaking invitations to all 2016 U.S. presidential candidates, both Republican and Democrat. So far, the Club has hosted Governor O’Malley and Senator Rand Paul, who spoke to the organization on December 16, 2015. A former captain and brigade medical plans officer in the United States Army, Michael Erin joined the Las Vegas Global Economic Alliance in 2014 as the global initiatives manager. Working with the economic development department and the communications director, he develops strategies to attract new businesses to Nevada. Michael Erin also travels to places such as Washington, DC, to meet with the Nevada congressional delegation and share his organization’s mission to spur economic growth.
Made up of two senators and four House representatives, the United States congressional delegation from Nevada comprises four of the 435 congressional districts in the nation. Democrat Harry Reid and Republican Dean Heller take on the responsibilities of senior and junior senator, respectively. Each hold a six-year term, during which time they serve as the voice of the people. They introduce and amend bills, except for those related to raising revenue. Senator Reid will be up for reelection in 2016 and Senator Heller in 2018. In the House of Representatives, Dina Titus leads the 1st Congressional District, while Mark Amodei, Joseph Heck, and Cresent Hardy oversee, in order, the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th districts. Each territory contains 710,000 citizens, with one congressional member representing his or her district for a two-year term. Additionally, each representative has an equal part in electing the president if the Electoral College is unable to do so. Representatives also play a major role in the impeachment process and have the right to present and amend bills. |
