Looming over the upcoming legislative session is the big unknown of whether Congress will repeal the Affordable Care Act and what it would mean for Nevada.

It’s a worry for the administration and lawmakers, who have to build a two-year spending plan that could be blown to bits if the federal government yanks subsidies for Medicaid expansion and policies purchased through the state health exchange.

As far as Sandoval goes, I will give him partial credit. In a world full of mouth-breathing R Governors, Sandoval is pretty even-keeled. If we had a Brownback-y type governor through the worst of the recession, state workers probably still have cuts and furloughs...or worse yet, jobless.
