Unfiltered: Greg Hafen

 
 

Welcome to Episode 3 of Unfiltered.

I'll be sitting down with Nevada's Republican state legislators to provide an unfiltered view of their work in the 81st Legislative Session in Carson City. In this interview, I speak with Nevada Assemblyman Greg Hafen. We talk about his family, his goals, and his strategy to just try to get something good done for rural Nevada in this wildly partisan legislative session. He’s a genuine, thoughtful elected official who is also a small business owner and proud Dad. Enjoy!

Greg is asking viewers to just say thanks to their Republican state legislators with an email or anything just to give them a little encouragement while in the minority.
