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

We have entered the final month of the Nevada legislative session! We are
approaching the next Committee Passage deadline on May 19th, and all bills
which are not exempt from deadlines must now pass the committee in the
opposite house from which it originated. 

Before we get into the agenda, here's two more events we have coming up
TODAY, Monday, May 8th. 

First, at 1PM today, Members of AFSCME Local 4041, our state workers
union, will be holding a press conference at the Nevada Legislature
covering their legislative priorities. They will have a livestream of the
event on the [ [link removed] ]AFSCME Local 4041 Facebook Page - make sure to tune in at
1PM and share the livestream to help signal boost these critical updates
from our union brothers and sisters! 

Next, happening just afterwards at 1:30PM today, BBP's Executive Director,
Annette Magnus, will be speaking to the Carson City Dems during their
Monday luncheon! She'll be giving a legislative update on what priority
legislation is moving (or not moving) in the capitol building. You can
join virtually via Zoom - make sure to visit the [ [link removed] ]Carson City Dems
website and follow instructions on the calendar to sign up!

Finally, on Wednesday, May 10th, at 1:30PM in Assembly Commerce and Labor,
there will be a bill hearing on [ [link removed] ]SB131, a bill that would codify
Governor Sisolak's executive order from last summer that protects abortion
providers and out of state patients seeking an abortion in Nevada. We NEED
support! 

* Testify in support of SB131 in person or via phone. You can also send
written testimony to [ mailto:[email protected] ][email protected].
* Post on social media about the SB131 hearing. You can find
our [ [link removed] ]talking points and sample social here. 
* Help us amplify Planned Parenthood Votes Nevada's [ [link removed] ]legislative
postcard which folks can fill out to easily send a message of support
to the members of Assembly C&L.
