Today, June 2, 2025, the 83rd Nevada Legislative Session ends. Several key processes take place. Bills passed by both the Nevada Assembly and Senate during the session are sent to the Governor for approval. The Governor has five days to sign or veto bills if presented before the session ends, or ten days if presented after adjournment, excluding Sundays. Bills not acted upon within these timeframes become law without the Governor’s signature. The Legislative Counsel Bureau begins compiling and publishing the session’s statutes, updating the Nevada Revised Statutes to reflect new laws, which typically take effect on October 1, 2025, unless otherwise specified. This means we need to tell the Governor he needs to veto at least the following bills before they become law!
The NVGOP sent out this list:
- AB 44 – Oppose – Nevada Unfair Trade Practice Act – Anti price gouging
