The contentious fight between Nevada casinos and the politically powerful Culinary Workers Union Local 226 over legally mandated daily room cleaning is coming back to Carson City from an unexpected source — a freshman Republican state senator.
Sen. Lori Rogich (R-Las Vegas) told The Nevada Independent Tuesday that she will introduce a measure to mandate daily room cleaning in hotels and casinos with the goal of addressing the illicit cannabis market. It’s illegal to consume cannabis outside of a private residence or a cannabis consumption lounge; the legal industry has blamed its flagging revenue numbers on lack of enforcement of a sizable unregulated market.
