The Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada has erected two political action committees, one to try to pass the margin tax and another to promote taking mining taxation out of the Constitution.
I'm not sure how much money they can raise, but Nevadans for Mining Fairness and Nevadans for Corporate Responsibility, both filed last week, create vehicles for the groups to try to combat the corporate interests that will fund opposition.
The pro margin tax PAC was set up so "profitable multi-national corporations can finally pay their fair share," according to the filing. But what about the unprofitable ones? And what about the non-multi-national ones?
The pro mining tax PACis "so that the Nevada mining industry no longer hides behind constitutional protections no other industry enjoys." Subtle, that is.
UPDATE, 3/24/14: And then there were three.
