## Resource

Clark County is gearing up for the 2027 legislative session with four priorities, but do these proposals reflect what Southern Nevada actually needs right now? Then, we break down why Las Vegas has such a significant food insecurity problem and how you can help. Plus, Vegas has had many viral food moments over the years, so we dig into the local spots and trends that captured our attention recently, including a Las Vegas bakery that went viral overnight for its stuffed conchas. Host Jesse Merrick breaks it all down with Nevada Current Deputy Editor April Corbin Girnus and Executive Producer Layla Muhammad.
