The interim legislative session begins January 6th. You can read more about the interim session and see the meeting dates here: https://www.leg.state.nv.us/App/InterimCommittee/REL/Interim2025
The interim committees are included on this page. You can see which legislators are on each committee by clicking on the associated committee link. https://www.leg.state.nv.us/App/InterimCommittee/REL/Interim2025/CommitteeList
To prepare, Vote Nevada is offering its “Advocacy During the Interim Legislative Session Training” on January 3, 2026, from 9 to 10 AM via Zoom. RSVP here:

I will share the meeting recording afterward.
You may have also heard about the drama at the Nevada System of Higher Education Regents meeting last Friday. It was even more tense than what was reported in the news.
The proposed hefty tuition increase vote was postponed until January 16th, so I will be discussing why and what may be next at a “What happened at the Regents meeting?” update on Friday, December 12th, from 8 to 9 AM, via Zoom. RSVP:

I will share the meeting recording afterward.
Finally, our Respect Nevada Voters ballot question signature gathering campaign is underway. We are asking supporters to Sign Up to Sign so we can set up petition signature-gathering events right after the holidays.
