“When we cut this budget, I’m going to try and make every average Nevadan whole, and not dig into their pockets,” Sherwood said. “It shouldn’t be the average citizen who has to pay.”

One idea Sherwood mentioned was altering Nevada’s corporate taxes on limited liability companies,

or LLCs.

The state is known for having cheap fees when it comes to setting up LLCs even for out-of-state businesses. Sherwood said she’d like to set up a “storefront clause,” where companies that are operating in the state would still get the rate, but a higher rate would apply to those who are simply out-of-state businesses using Nevada to incorporate.

“I don’t see why we’re giving the whole world a tax break and we don’t get anything for it,” she said.

She also said she wants to work

on legislation to set up more trade-training, which she added could help attract more businesses to Nevada.
