Senate Concurrent RESOLUTION—Urging the Commission on Tourism and the Commission on Economic Development to promote Nevada as a state where choice in health care is available.

 

   Whereas, Tourism and economic development are of critical

 importance to Nevada and especially to its rural communities; and

   Whereas, The industry of gaming in Nevada is losing tourism to the

 many Indian casinos now proliferating the country; and

   Whereas, Nevada would benefit from a new tourism base and a new

 compassionate, family-oriented image; and

   Whereas, Promoting this state as a national leader in alternative health

 care choices would draw people to Nevada; and

   Whereas, Many Americans are already seeking alternative health care

 in Arizona, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Asia, the Philippines, the Caribbean

 and various other locations throughout the world; and

   Whereas, Existing health care laws in Nevada allow its residents and

 visitors a variety of health care choices; now, therefore, be it

   Resolved by the Senate of the State of Nevada, the Assembly

 Concurring, That the Nevada Legislature urges the Commission on

 Tourism and the Commission on Economic Development and all other

 state, county or city tourism agencies to promote this state as a

 compassionate, family-oriented state that offers alternative health care

 choices; and be it further

   Resolved, That the Secretary of the Senate prepare and transmit a copy

 of this resolution to Lieutenant Governor Lorraine Hunt, Chairman of the

 Commission on Tourism and Chairman of the Commission on Economic

 Development.
