Nevada county bid to honor Trump goes from road to buildings
Aug. 2, 2021
YERINGTON, Nev. (AP) — Lawmakers in a rural Nevada county who decided 3-2 last month not to name a road for former President Donald Trump now are considering putting his name on their court, jail and sheriff’s office.
Lyon County commissioners have scheduled debate Thursday on a bid to name the Justice Complex in Yerington after Trump, the Reno Gazette-Journal reported.
A proclamation proposed by commission Chairwoman Vida Keller credits Trump with filling hundreds of federal judicial positions, enforcing U.S. immigration laws and solving what it calls "the humanitarian crisis across the Western Hemisphere.”
