Lawmakers wrapped up the 31^st special session of the state legislature last night.

All together, the session lasted 12 days, which included a positive COVID-19 test, partisan sparring over mining taxes and deep cuts to social services.

The legislature had to make up $1.2 billion in funding shortfalls caused by the pandemic and the economic lockdown it caused.

Medicaid, educational programs like Read by Grade 3 and the Nevada System of Higher Education have all seen reductions.

Also, Gov. Steve Sisolak postponed an anticipated second special session due to the surge in new cases.

In a statement, he said issues such as police reform and workplace protections against the pandemic are still urgent, but he has reservations about asking lawmakers to meet while infection rates are still climbing.
