Tea Party activists will hold a Tax Day protest on the lawn next to the Legislature today. The gathering, set to start at 10:30 a.m., is one of hundreds of such protests organized around the country on the deadline for filing income tax returns. Protesters held similar gatherings a year ago.
At the same time, the group ProgressNow Nevada is holding what director Erin Neff termed progressive tea parties "to counter the anger and misinformation of the Tea Party movement."
That group's protest will start at 11 a.m. across Carson Street from the Legislature.
