Candidates Night Set for May 17

The Churchill County Republican Central Committee along with local media will present Candidates Night on May 17 at the Fallon Convention Center for the Churchill County Commission, Assembly District 38, and State Senate District 17. For those who can’t attend, The Lahontan Broadcasting Company and KKTU (99.5 FM) will broadcast the event.

The CCRCC is sponsoring the event while the Fallon Post and the Lahontan Valley News will serve as moderators for Candidates Night. Each candidate will be asked questions about the role of their specific office. Several questions have been tailored to the Lahontan Valley.

Running for Commission District 2 are Tanya Freeman, Myles Getto, Kenneth Harmon, and Thomas Riggins. Since all the candidates are Republican, the winner of the primary election will serve as commissioner for the next four years.

The two candidates seeking the Nevada Assembly District 38 seat are Vida Keller, a Lyon County Commissioner and real estate agent, and Dr. Greg Koenig, a Churchill County Commissioner and an optometrist. As both candidates are Republican, the winner of the primary election will serve as assemblyperson for the next two years.

Running for State Senate District 17 are Dr. Robin Titus, a Lyon County physician and current assemblywoman in District 38, and James Wheeler, a Douglas County rancher and current assemblyman for District 39. As both candidates are Republican, the winner of the primary election will serve as state senator for the next four years.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
