Gov. Steve Sisolak was joined by Nevada Congress member Dina Titus and Frank Hawk, vice president of the Southwest Regional Council of Carpenters, at the Carpenters Union Hall in Las Vegas for the announcement of the fifth round of winners for Vax Nevada Days.
The public health incentive program launched last month and will wrap up on Aug. 26, when a $1 million grand-prize winner will be named. In an effort to increase the number of vaccinated people in the state, $5 million in cash and prizes is being distributed.
“I want to thank Frank Hawk … for hosting us in this beautiful space,” Gov. Sisolak said. “The Carpenters have continued to safely construct hospitals, schools and vital infrastructure projects throughout the past 15 months. I am grateful for the continued efforts of all our partners – from labor and business partners who are keeping our economy going to healthcare workers on the front lines.”
