Cannon rails at Fike on seniority and Senate power
Sen. Howard W. Cannon said Lt. Gov. Ed Fike misrepresents Senate seniority and the process as he arrived in Las Vegas for appearances. Cannon stressed that committee appointments come from Congressional leadership, cited Bible's senior status on the Appropriations and Interior committees, and tied funding for Nellis AFB, the Nevada Test Site, and the Southern Nevada Water Project to that seniority.
