Political reporter James DeHaven of the Reno Gazette Journal joins Insight to discuss the implications of Nevada’s new legislative majority. He’ll discuss the cultural and demographic changes that led to women’s electoral success, outline some of their influence on legislation and what this could mean moving forward.
