Sen. Justin Jones, D-Las Vegas, had an eventful legislative session this year. After a month-long uphill battle, Sen. Jones was able to get his controversial firearm background checks past both houses of the legislature only to have the bill vetoed by Gov. Sandoval. Jones also voted to repeal Nevada's ban on gay marriage despite being a member of the LDS Church which adheres to the idea that marriage is between a man and a woman. Jones joins us to talk about this year's legislative session.
