The Right Take: Moving the Marijuana Money – VIDEO

Democrats introduced Senate Bill 545 yesterday. It would move the proceeds from the sales tax
tax on the retail sale of marijuana into the Distributive School Account. Speaker Jason Frierson
said the move would send “about $120 million to the DSA over the biennium.” The Clark
County School District says it needs $120 million more to fund the raises promised by Sisolak.
Combine those two bits of information and it looks like a solution is in sight. In reality, this move doesn’t change education funding by one dime.
