jacky rosen: i'm jacky rosen,

and i learned there's always a smart solution. as president of my synagogue, we found a smart solution to rising energy costs... creating one of the largest solar projects in the state. in congress, i'll work with democrats and republicans to make all of nevada a leader in solar, to improve our schools, and create good jobs. i approved this message because i know we can find smart solutions... even in washington. i'm catherine cortez masto and i approve this message.

impact my patients here in nevada. so even though i'm a republican, i won't be voting for joe heck. joe heck's voted ten times to defund planned parenthood, which thousands of women depend on for cancer screenings. and heck opposes a woman's right to choose even when her health is at risk. for me and my patients, joe heck makes no sense. it's all because of questions..... about whether or not they are knock offs. one of india's largest textile suppliers..... has been furnishing retailers.... with possible knock-off egyptian cotton products.

just in time for tomorrow's taco day.... chorizo is the newest menu item..... at chipotle restaurants.... across the u-s. test-market runs of the spicy sausage..... were a hit in a handful of markets.... this summer. the chain says.... its chorizo.... will be made.... of "responsibly raised" chicken and pork. it'll add flavors of paprika.... toasted cumin..... and chipotle peppers. the menu addition is chipotle's latest move..... to bring the company had to deal with outbreaks of e-coli.... salmonella..... and norovirus late last year. sales and revenue nose- dived.... as a result. events in recent months have strained relationships between police and the communities they serve. now.. the u-s department of justice is hoping to turn it around with a new focus on community policing. kumasi aaron takes a closer look. --pkg full=-- --take nat:-- "police riot gear" scenes like these are becoming all too

police... --take nat:-- "police riot gear" ...and the communities they are hired to serve. --take nat:-- "police riot gear" but attorney general loretta lynch wants to focus on a different kind of policing. community policing. --loretta lynch/ attorney general-- "loretta lynch sound" today lynch announced nearly 120 million dollars in justice department grants to help police departments across the country hire new officers, rehire others and prevent layoffs. --take nat:-- --07:50-53-- "i see no downside. i see a win-win for everybody." steve davis has workeds enforcement officer for decades, and says community-policing boils down to one thing. --steve davs/ law enforcement officer-- --07:00-06-- building the relationship knowing the people that you are working with knowing who's in your area that you work. at davis' police department, all officers are assigned to a specific community, and for the most part stay in that community long term. --steve davis/lakewood police department-- --04:44-54-- that goes a long way to get rid of a lot of the problems before they ever happen as far as any tensions between the community and the police. he believes that's one of the

--steve davis/lakewood police department-- --04:03-12-- people need to know that they are police department works with them not for them not against them but with them. it's a message he hopes spreads to all police departments and communities. --take nat:-- --03:22-28-- it's good thing for both sides making policing a partnership. for the now, i'm kumasi aaron. we're potentially just weeks away..... from learning the fate of the proposed n-f-l stadium.... here in las vegas... only on 13 action news.... live at 6:30.. casino bil steve wynn weighs in.... on the debate over the stadium. why he says... this is something.... las vegas needs. plus.. details on what's being revealed about republican presidential nominee donald trump that has him trying to dodge some big shots from his

politics should never come before basic health care, but that's the choice joe heck keeps making. planned parenthood for checkups and cancer screenings, but congressman joe heck voted ten times to take away their funding. heck even threatened to shut down the federal government to eliminate funding for planned parenthood. shutting down the government... taking away access to lifesaving care... just to score political points. joe heck should be ashamed. women vote is responsible

when i was one year old, i was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer on my spinal chord. but i spent my whole life fighting back. so you can imagine what i thought when i saw donald trump say... "i don't know what i said, ah, i don't remember!" "that reporter he is talking about suffers from a chronic condition that impairs movement of his arms." i don't want a president who makes fun of me. ump.

we're hearing from one of the

about the stadium extremely clear. 13 action news.... political analyst jon ralston sat down with steve wynn... and... talked about why he says... las vegas.... needs this. no one understands the las vegas economy as steve wynn does. he foresaw trends before anyone else. almost 30 years ago, the mirage ushered in the megaresort era. today, wynn says, the one project that could transform the future of las vegas is a professional football stadium. wynn: i've been here since '68. '67. nothing. nothing since the change in law that allowed public financing of our industry, which provided the capital---nothing is as big a deal to the state of nevada---not just las vegas, as the nfl---as professional sports coming to this city. wynn said the stadium would be
