Episode 4 brings back Steve W. Sanson, co-founder and president of Veterans in Politics International. Steve served in the United States Marine Corps from 1985 to 1991 and in the United States Army from 1992 to 1998. He was deployed to Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. He has advocated for veterans for almost 25 years, testifying in front of the Nevada state legislature on issues from veterans’ cemeteries, to keeping nuclear waste out of Nevada, to printing the word veteran on Nevada driver’s licenses, and fighting to change police policies when dealing with veterans who might have PTSD.

In Episode 4, Sanson describes the efforts of Veterans in Politics International to educate political candidates on veterans’ issues, which is how he and Dr. Kahn met in 2016. Veterans in Politics International is a non-partisan group that invites all political candidates running in the State of Nevada to participate in interviews and discussions, all open to the public. The veterans that attend are outspoken about their needs. Candidates listen and then have an opportunity to speak.

Sanson has written two books:

How to Collect on Your Bad Debt Accounts in Clark County Nevada (2005) available on Amazon

How to Navigate Nevada’s Family Court System (2024) available on Kindle on Amazon
