Draconian anti-abortion policies in Texas and other states forcing women to give birth at the cost of their own health, compromised or dead fetuses, or jailing women and their doctors have stimulated questions about whether American states can co-exist with each other.

It’s rare to be a moderate in Nevada’s Legislature — and there’s no sign of that changing.
