Nevada Special Session Enters Day 6 With Film Credits and Crime Bill Awaiting Senate Votes

Senate floor decisions now control the fate of the session’s two biggest measures.

Overview

  • As of Tuesday morning, eight of 16 proposals have cleared both chambers and are headed to Gov. Joe Lombardo, while AB4 and AB5 remain unresolved.
  • AB4, the governor’s criminal justice package, and AB5, a major expansion of transferable film tax credits, passed the Assembly and cleared Senate committees, making them eligible for full Senate votes.
  • Legislative attorneys warned an Assembly amendment to AB6 could fall outside the special-session call, yet a Senate committee advanced the bill unchanged to the floor.
  • An immigration study resolution, ACR5, was shelved after advocates said it was insufficient, with the Assembly speaker confirming it will not receive a hearing.
  • Passed items include cybersecurity upgrades, a state assistance program to bridge federal SNAP gaps, funding for Windsor Park relocations, and an expansion of presumptive coverage for first responders’ lung diseases.
