The Las Vegas Review-Journal reports that low income households spend a rising share of income on power, with 12.6 percent or more for a quarter of those households, while many middle income families face tightened budgets. The piece notes rising bills, the role of solar reliability, and NV Energy’s Greenlink project costing over 4 billion dollars to back up renewables, as a critique of the state’s renewable portfolio standard and calls for easing mandates.

It traces historical fears of a national church, notes local opposition, and argues courts should strike it down while affirming the value of religious diversity as a safeguard of conscience. Noah Feldman, Harvard law professor, weighs in.
