Nevada leaders react to President Trumps’ State of the Union Address

RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – Nevada leaders from across the political spectrum are reacting to President Trump’s State of the Union Address Tuesday night.

U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen said:

“Donald Trump spent hours lying by saying life has gotten better since he came back into office, but Nevadans know the truth: prices are still too high, millions have lost access to health care, and his illegal tariffs are hurting small businesses,” said Senator Rosen. “Tonight’s speech was not a display of leadership, it was political theater. Nevadans and all Americans deserve better – they deserve lower costs, access to affordable health care, and a president who actually fights for them.”

Meanwhile, Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo took to Twitter to say:

“Tonight, I was encouraged by President Trump’s commitment to growing our nation’s economy, lowering costs for hardworking families, and protecting American workers. In Nevada, we share those priorities, and I will continue working with the President to strengthen our economy, expand good paying job opportunities and ensure every Nevadan has the opportunity to achieve the American Dream right here at home.”

Fellow Democratic Nevada Senator Catherine Cortez Masto said:

“Over the past year, President Trump has raised the cost of food, housing, and health care, severely hurt the travel and tourism economy, and terrorized communities across America. At a time when Americans across the country are asking for relief from this Administration’s policies, the President used his State of the Union Address to offer empty promises and spread lies. His speech offered working families no respite from his disastrous agenda. That’s not the America that we work toward – I’ll continue to fight for a better future for Nevadans.”

Representative Mark Amodei did not send KOLO 8 News Now a response after the address but did discuss several subjects prior to the speech. He praised Trump for securing the southern border, strengthening peace and stability abroad and reigning in wasteful government spending as well as cutting red tape.

Mansion on the Nevada Side of Lake Tahoe Swiftly Sells for Million

A waterfront mansion on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe just sold for $46 million, less than three weeks after hitting the market.

The speedy deal marks a departure from the typical U.S. market.

Nationwide, homes took a median 78 days to land a buyer in January, five more than the same time last year and the 22nd straight month of homes taking longer to sell on a year-over-year basis, according to data from Realtor.com.

The lavish log cabin-like residence, in Incline Village, listed on Jan. 24 for $47.5 million. It sold 20 days later, on Feb. 13, listing records show.

The more than 7,000-square-foot residence was built in 2014, and has double-height living spaces, walls of windows, beamed ceilings, fireplaces, and plenty of rustic exposed stone and wood, listing images show.

There’s also a gym, a wet bar, a spa, a wine room, an office, two separate game rooms, seven bedrooms and dramatic Lake Tahoe views. Outside, there’s a private sandy beach, multiple decks, a heated driveway and two exterior fireplaces, according to listing information.

The seller and the buyer are both limited liability companies, according to property records. Both parties were represented by Jeff Brown of Tahoe Mountain Realty, who declined to comment on the deal.

The median home price in Incline Village was $1.595 million as of December, a fall of 3.3% from a year earlier, according to data from Realtor.com. Listings, meanwhile, spent an average of 130 days on the market.
