Dear Nevadans,

Since 2003, the Nevada Conservation League has created the Conservation Scorecard so Nevadans can see how well their legislators protect our climate, air, water, land, and communities. This Conservation Scorecard provides information about critical environmental legislation considered and votes taken during the 2025 Nevada Legislative Session.

This session, the Nevada Conservation League and our partners secured the passage of five policy priorities to invest in clean energy solutions, protect Nevadans from utility overcharges and unchecked bill increases, enable affordable housing residents to access solar energy, provide our youth with outdoor education opportunities, and advance wildlife connectivity. Additionally, over 30 pro-environmental bills were signed into law – most with bipartisan support.

In all, the 83rd Legislative Session saw strong progress and leadership on issues that are important to Nevada voters. This was only possible because of our legislative champions, partner organizations, members, supporters, and activists like you. Thousands of everyday Nevadans from across the state made their voices heard by attending Conservation Lobby Day in Carson City, signing petitions, or sending messages directly to their representatives. Your tireless activism helped us throughout the legislative session and ensured we continued to make strides.

But there is still work to be done. Even with these victories, we continue to face threats from the fossil fuel industry, monopoly utilities, and anti-conservation politicians. The climate crisis continues to induce extreme weather events across the country — and Nevada is on the frontline. The work to build a cleaner, healthier, and more affordable future is far from over.

That is why it is important to use the scorecard not as a stopping point, but as a progress report. We must work to make sure that Nevada is leading the fight to expand local clean energy, address environmental inequities, and protect our public lands and environment for future generations to enjoy.

We encourage you to review the scorecard and reach out to your elected officials to thank our champions or ask more of those who fell short. Nevada Conservation League is energized to continue to work together to ensure Nevada remains at the forefront of environmental progress.

Best,
Kristee Watson
Executive Director
