http://gov.nv.gov/about/First_Lady_Kathy_Sisolak/

Kathy Sisolak was born Katherine Won Ong in Ely, Nevada as the youngest of four children and the only girl. Kathy’s family left Ely soon after she was born, moving to Las Vegas, Nevada so that Kathy’s father could work at the Fremont Hotel on Fremont Street as a card dealer. Her father was the first Chinese dealer on Fremont Street. Kathy’s mother worked for Clark County, Nevada as a data processor.

Kathy attended the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and received a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, with an emphasis in finance. Upon graduation in 1981 she started her public service working for Clark County, Nevada in the budget office. She eventually became the budget manager where she directed the preparation, implementation and control of Clark County’s $1.8 billion annual budget. She left the County in 1996 to establish the firm of Hobbs, Ong & Associates, Inc., a financial advisory firm specializing in municipal finance. Since establishing the firm, Kathy has worked on, structured, and managed the sale of more than $32.4 billion of tax-exempt and taxable debt. State and local governments use tax-exempt bonds as a way to finance a myriad of capital projects, such as roads and streets, water and sewer systems, flood control projects, park improvements, court houses, airport improvements, convention centers and other building expansions. This unique specialty has assisted local governments obtain low cost financing that ultimately saves taxpayer money.

Kathy was also on the Board of Directors of Employers Holdings, Inc. She retired from the Board in 2018. She was initially appointed to Employers Insurance Company of Nevada (formally the Nevada State Industrial Insurance System) by Governor Kenny Guinn. She was also the Chair of the Board of the Nevada Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS). She was appointed to the Nevada PERS Board by Governor Sandoval on July 1, 2011. She retired from the PERS Board in 2019.

Kathy got to know Steve Sisolak at the neighborhood gym and started dating her future husband in 2013. She first met him many years prior to dating him during his time as a Board of Regent then as a Clark County Commissioner. They married in December 2018 soon after Steve was elected as governor for the State of Nevada.

Energy lobbyist Mike McKenna is taking a job at the White House on Monday, a White House official confirmed yesterday to E&E News.

McKenna will work under Eric Ueland, the legislative affairs director, who was tapped for the post this summer. McKenna will also serve as deputy assistant to the president, and is expected to work on energy and environmental issues.

Long known in Washington Republican energy circles, McKenna launched his firm, MWR Strategies, 15 years ago to lobby for energy companies and the power sector. In the first three quarters of 2019, his firm earned $490,000 from investor Competitive Power Ventures and natural gas distributor Engie, among other energy interests, lobbying records show. He personally lobbies before the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, EPA and the Energy Department.

In 2016, McKenna briefly served on President Trump's Energy Department transition team before Tom Pyle, president of the American Energy Alliance, took over. Both often speak publicly against Democratic energy positions.

McKenna has suggested that Trump should campaign on energy issues to distinguish himself from Democrats, who he has asserted "have gone crazy."

"They are now in a bidding war to see who will make energy prices increase the most," he told E&E News in July. "The president will take full advantage of that — as he should" (Energywire, July 9).

With one year remaining in Trump's first term, McKenna will enter the White House after a number of energy and environment staff have left their posts.

George David Banks, who served in an international and climate post, left the White House in early 2018 after failing to obtain a security clearance. He now works at the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis for the minority. Mike Catanzaro, a longtime D.C. operative, also left last year and now works at the communications firm CGCN Group. And this summer, nuclear engineer Aaron Weston left his White House post in August to return to Idaho National Laboratory.

Some conservatives who support Trump's deregulatory agenda have lamented a lack of personnel in key posts across the administration.

McKenna has also worked at Republican communications firms, including the conservative Luntz Research Cos., Vox Populi Communications Inc. and Andres McKenna Research, according to his online biography on MWR's website.

Before that, McKenna worked at the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality and "served as a relations specialist at both DOE and DOT," the website says. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in history at the University of Pennsylvania and a master's in public administration at George Mason University.

In an interview with E&E News in March, McKenna said while the administration has had a "solid yet unspectacular" couple of years, "the challenge from here is to articulate and execute an agenda going forward" (Energywire, March 26).
