OB/GYN Training

2017: Laxalt Announced He Had Allocated $1.2 Million To The University Of Nevada Medical School For An OB/GYN Program, An Act Prohibited By State Law. According to Reno News & Review, “Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt this week announced he had ‘allocated’ $1.2 million to the University of Nevada Medical School for an OB/GYN program. […] The Nevada Constitution reads, at article 4, section 19, ‘No money shall be drawn from the treasury but in consequence of appropriations made by law.’ […] While state officials like Laxalt can recommend such spending of settlements, Carlton said, ‘Usually they go through the board of examiners and then come through us.’ Some state legislators were upset by Laxalt’s announcement because they feel it puts them in a difficult position if they have to approve or disapprove funding he has already promised.” [Reno News & Review, 7/20/17]
