Check out what’s on deck (so far) for this week!
Hi Friend, 

This Tuesday, April 25th, is a crucial deadline for the legislature. All
non-exempt bills MUST be voted on the floor of the chamber they originated
from in order to stay alive. 

Before we get to what’s on the agenda, we need your help to make sure a
vital measure stays alive. Assemblywoman Considine’s bill, AB250, to lower
drug prices for ALL Nevadans, has yet to be voted on on the Assembly Floor
and we need YOU to contact your Assemblymember and tell them that it’s
time to vote YES on AB250! 

Here’s what you can do:

* Submit your opinion on NELIS: To submit an opinion on a bill, log in
with your Nevada Legislature account, go to the [ [link removed] ]Bill Number Page,
find the bill you are interested in submitting an opinion on
[ [link removed] ](AB250), click on the bill's name to go to the bill's Overview tab,
scroll to the bottom of that tab, find and then click the "Submit
Opinion or View Opinion Stats" link.
* Show your Assemblymember the research: Numbers don’t lie and the
numbers show that Nevadans overwhelmingly support setting price limits
on
Rx drugs! [ [link removed] ]Click here to tell the #NVLeg that it’s time to vote YES
on AB250. 
* Call your Assemblymember: Our elected officials work for us and it’s
important that they hear from you! [ [link removed] ]Call them and tell them why you
think it’s important to make Rx drugs affordable for ALL Nevadans.

Now, here’s what’s on deck and how you can help!
