(The Center Square) – Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo has broken the state record for most vetoes during a single legislative session with 87.
It’s a record he set himself after the previous session in 2023 when he vetoed 75 bills. Nevada is one of four states where the Legislature meets only during odd-numbered years.
This year Lombardo signed 518 bills into law, and his 10-day window to decide on bills passed on Friday.
Despite all the noise made around Nevada legislators’ efforts to push bills through the state’s narrow 120-day session window, they still have to make it off the Republican governor’s desk. And the Democratic majorities in the Assembly and Senate don’t have enough seats to override Lombardo’s vetoes.
“I did not take lightly the decision to veto 87 bills,” said Lombardo in a press release. “I do not enjoy using the veto pen, but as Governor, it is my responsibility to protect Nevadans from legislation that goes too far, expands government unnecessarily, or creates unintended consequences that hurt families, businesses, or our economy.” more
Did he ACTUALLY promote freedom with these vetoes??
“This year Lombardo signed 518 bills into law,”
I find that even more incredible. Holy crap. By this time what have they not already legislated on?
I’ll be looking for him to come clean on what he knows regarding the Las Vegas shooting. Until then he will always be a piece of crap!
^^^^Bad_Brad TUESDAY, 17 JUNE 2025, 16:06 AT 4:06 PM. That’s what I’ve been saying about commiefornia for 50 years.
^^^^^^
And a lot worse now. Whens the last time the voters got a chance to vote on a bill or resolution? I think it might have been gay marriage. And we voted it down. That’s not the out come our over lord were looking for so they over turned the results in court.
They don’t have a choice but to do a crap ton at a time.
Lombardo managed to slap down some democrat election, school and tax nonsense.
Wouldn’t it be refreshing if the legislators met and announced, “We already have too many laws, and many of those have produced unintended consequences that prompt people to demand even more laws. So, we’re going to devote this session, and the next and the next if you voters agree, to do nothing but repeal bad laws. Our objective is to shrink the state code by at least 10% each session.”
I’m dreaming, I know. When I was younger I fantasized about running for office with a single plank platform: repeal, repeal, repeal.
Uncle Al- Look where Carson City is on the map. No hope.
Uncle Al
I’ve been saying for ever that if you want to pass a new law you need to get rid of two already on the books. I mean wtf? I read a couple days ago Cali still has a law on the books that demands a person walk in front of your horseless carriage with a lit lantern at night.
what america needs is at least a 90% reduction in the lawyer population
