Nevada's Elected Officials Failing Nevadans.

Governor Steve Sisolak, Senator Catherine Cortez Masto, Congressman Steven Horsford and Heather Korbulic,
My Name is Rodney Fife. The reason I am reaching out to you via this video message is because as of today it has been 90 days since I filed my unemployment claim. It has also been 70 days since I was promised a decision by an adjudicator.
I am also speaking out because I am one of the 40,000 plus Nevadans who still have a claim in the pending resolution status. My name is Rodney Fife not claimant ID # 5440665. I lost my jobs due to your stay at home order. I stayed home and did what you ask of us.
I have called the DETR office thousands of times. I have emailed and faxed hundreds of times. I even sent letters via the post office. If you took carrier pigeons or smoke signals I would send those as well. I have contacted the offices of all my locally elected officials. As of today none of you have provided me any support to get my claim resolved and paid.
Like I said before it has been 90 days since I filed. The inactions of your office has put my housing in jeopardy. It has put me in debt to the tune of thousands of dollars. I am not looking for your sympathy Mr. Governor. In fact, your fake compassion upsets me and most Nevadans.
When are you going to take the regions of leadership and do the job you were elected too? When are you going to issue an emergency directive and demand DETR to pay out claims it has been sitting on for 90 + days? When are you going to address the rampant incompetence by your administration and the office of DETR?
To all of my representatives, when are you going to answer my calls for help? Do you remember you are supposed to serve and represent the people of Nevada. Again, my name is Rodney Fife and not claimant ID # 5440665.
Your incompetence and inaction has caused more damage to Nevada than the virus has. You have failed the people of Nevada.
Nevada Media are you going to start asking the hard questions Nevadans need and deserve to have answers too? KSNV News 3, Las Vegas FOX5 Las Vegas 8 News Now KTNV Channel 13 Action News Las Vegas Review-Journal Las Vegas Sun
