Summary
Nevada just filed the first lawsuit challenging the Trump administration's Colorado River plan that could cut the state's already tiny water allocation by up to 71%. We break down why these cuts don't make sense, and what it could mean for our water future. Then, Water Street's biggest real estate project has a new owner, could this be a step in the right direction for Henderson's historic downtown? Nevada was just ranked one of the worst places to live, while simultaneously being named the happiest travel destination in the country. So, we dig into what that disconnect actually says about life in Las Vegas. Host Jesse Merrick breaks it all down with Nevada Current Deputy Editor April Corbin Girnus and newsletter editor Rob Kachelreiss.
