We still need Governor Lombardo to sign SB 7. However let us show gratitude where it’s due:

Special thanks to Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzaro for sponsoring SB 7 and standing strong for Nevada’s first responders, to Senators like Melanie Scheible for her tireless advocacy for this legislation on the floor and to the Legislatures who voted yes to this critical bill.

The time is now to voice your support for SB 7! Call or email(link in the bio) or call 775‑684‑5670 the governors office today!

It's not politics—it's about protection. Following the historic MGM and Hilton fires in the early 1980s, the Nevada fire service made strategy and safety a priority. We are grateful for the leadership that secured the 1989 presumptive lung legislation to protect our first responders.
Recently, a Supreme Court ruling removed that presumptive clause. This means current and retired firefighters, who have been repeatedly exposed to harmful carcinogens, have lost the protection of this vital law.
During the recent Nevada Legislative Special Session, bipartisan lawmakers took quick action to pass SB7, a bill to reinstate this protection. However, it will not go into effect unless Governor Lombardo signs it.
Now it's time, Nevada. Join us in letting the Governor know that our firefighters deserve this law. Please email or call the Governor's office to stand behind this critical cause!

*This isn’t politics it’s protection. SB7 ensures our sacrifices aren’t met with silence*

Over the last 3 decades we have made tremendous strides to improve the safety of our members. However due to exposures to carcinogens, we must have additional protections for current and retired members. SB7 is one. Our Legislative branches have passed this bill. Now Governor Lombardo has it in his hands to sign.
