Lisa Krasner

Voted for Assembly Bill 460, which gives parents a form for naming who should raise their child if they cannot. A parent signs the form in front of two adult witnesses who have no stake in the family's money, and has it notarized. The parent can name a first choice and a backup, and can say they do not want a for-profit guardian appointed. A court has to take the form into account when it picks a guardian. The form does not hand anyone custody. The person named still has to ask a court to appoint them. The bill also lets a court treat temporary guardianship as best for a child when a parent is separated from that child by a federal immigration order. Registering the form with the Secretary of State becomes free. The Nevada Senate passed it 16-4, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Assembly Bill 420, which makes school districts report on force used by their own police. A district that employs school police, and a charter school that contracts for them, must publish a report each school year. The report covers incidents involving a baton, a chemical agent such as pepper spray, or a stun device. For each one it must say where it happened and whether it was during the school day or at a school event. It must also give the age, race, gender and ethnicity of the people force was used on, with no names. The report goes on the district's own website. The bill only requires the numbers to be published. It does not limit when force may be used, and it sets no penalty for failing to publish. The Nevada Senate passed it 15-6, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Senate Bill 88, which deals with medical debt people owe the prison system when they get out. Prisons in Nevada charge people for some medical care, and the bill they leave with can follow them. The version the Senate voted told the head of the Department of Corrections to wipe that debt out on release. It reached people released before July 2025 too. The Nevada Senate passed the version that wiped the debt out, 14-7. The Assembly later changed it to a ban on collecting the debt, and let collection restart if the person returns to prison, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Assembly Bill 235, which lets more people hide their home address in public records. Judges, police officers and prosecutors could already ask a court to seal their personal details held by county recorders, assessors and election clerks. The bill adds health workers who practice reproductive health care, staff and volunteers at clinics that provide it, and providers of gender-affirming care. A spouse, domestic partner or minor child may ask too. Sealing still takes a sworn statement and a court order. The bill also lets these people show a different address on a driver's license, which needs only proof to the DMV and no court order. The Nevada Senate passed it 14-7, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Senate Bill 161, which gives teachers' unions and school districts a new binding arbitration option when a contract has expired or is about to expire near the start of the school year. While an expired contract stays in force, a district cannot push teachers to work longer than it required. In an illegal strike, penalties fall only on the union and its officers, not on individual teachers, and action at one or a few schools is not a strike unless it is district-wide. The Nevada Senate passed it 14-6, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Senate Bill 89, which would have added hate crime convictions to the list of convictions that bar a person from buying or owning a gun in Nevada.

Voted against Assembly Bill 90, which extends the rights of children held in state custody. Nevada's Juvenile Justice Bill of Rights already covered detention centers. The bill adds regional facilities that treat and rehabilitate children. Staff there must tell a child their rights, give the child and, where possible, a parent a copy, and post them where they can be seen. A juvenile court must also make two findings before sending a child to one of these facilities. It must find that no suitable community option exists or one was tried and failed, and that the child poses a public safety risk. The Nevada Senate passed it 12-8, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Senate Bill 128, which would have limited how health insurers use computer systems to refuse to pay for care. The version the Senate voted barred an insurer from using artificial intelligence at all to deny, cut back or end approved care, though it could still use it to approve care automatically. Insurers would also have had 20 days to answer a request, and Medicaid managed care plans were exempt. The Nevada Senate passed it 15-6, but the governor vetoed the bill, so it never became law.

Voted against Senate Bill 171, which would have stopped Nevada licensing boards from punishing anyone for providing medically necessary gender-affirming health care that is lawful in Nevada. It would also have barred state agencies from helping another state investigate that care, and barred the governor from handing a person over to another state for it unless the person was in that state when the alleged crime happened and then fled. Care for a minor was covered only with a parent's consent, unless Nevada law let the minor consent. The Nevada Senate passed it 13-8, but the governor vetoed the bill, so it never became law.

Voted against Senate Bill 284, which stops the state using a foster child's own benefit money to pay for the child's care. Some children in state custody are owed Social Security or veterans benefits, often after a parent dies. Under the old law that money went into a trust fund and was used to repay the government for the child's care. The bill repeals that rule and requires the agency to hold the money for the child instead. The agency must check within 60 days whether a child is owed benefits, and apply for them if so. It must keep the money in an account that does not cost the child other benefits, and account for it every six months. The change starts in January 2026. The Nevada Senate passed it 14-7, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Senate Bill 166, which limits how insurers treat dog breeds. Nevada already barred an insurer from refusing or repricing a policy when the dog's breed was the only reason. This bill drops the word only. Now the ban applies whenever the decision is based on breed. It also covers policies on multi-family buildings. An insurer may still act on a dog known to be dangerous or vicious. It may also act on sound underwriting principles. The bill also requires anyone who takes a state supportive-housing grant to let a tenant keep at least one pet. The Nevada Senate passed it 14-7, and the bill was signed into law.

Voted against Senate Bill 188, which requires health care to be reachable for people who do not speak English well. Hospitals, clinics and individual providers must take reasonable steps so a language barrier does not block care. Any help with language has to be free to the patient, accurate and on time. A provider may not make the patient bring their own interpreter or pay for one. It may use a child under 18 only briefly in a safety emergency, while it looks for a qualified interpreter. It may use an adult who is not qualified only in that kind of emergency or at the patient's own documented request. A qualified translator has to check a document run through translation software when the document matters to the patient's rights or health. A facility that breaks the rules can lose its license or be fined; a provider may be disciplined by its board. The Nevada Senate passed it 13-8, and the bill was signed into law.

A certificate of title is the document that proves who owns a manufactured or mobile home. When the old one is lost or withheld, the owner asks the state Housing Division for a new one. Before this bill the Division could take as long as it liked and did not have to explain a refusal. The bill gives it 45 days to issue the title or turn the request down. A refusal has to come with written reasons within 10 days. The Division must also set up a faster track for people who pay for it. The bond and inspection an owner needs for the backup route do not change. The Nevada Senate passed it 16-5, and the bill was signed into law.
