“While Nevadans were battling the detrimental effects of the pandemic, Governor Steve Sisolak was helping campaign donors land government contracts,” said RGA Spokeswoman Maddie Anderson. “As a result of Sisolak’s cronyism, 96% of Nevadans who were tested for COVID by this corrupt company received inaccurate test results. Nevada families deserve better.”

It’s a tale of corruption and cronyism that cost lives.

Steve Sisolak’s Administration fast-tracked a government contract for a shady company tied to a campaign donor.

Sisolak got thirty eight grand in campaign cash.

His donor’s sons got a COVID testing contract for their client.

But ninety six percent of their tests failed to identify COVID cases…while Nevadans were dying.

Now there’s an investigation…and Steve Sisolak is caught in the middle.
