Nevada Families
for Freedom
State Affiliate of the Eagle Forum
Nevada Families for Freedom has been enabling constitution minded, conservative and pro-family men and women to participate in the process of self-government and public policy making. This work will help preserve individual liberty, respect for family integrity, public and private virtue, and private enterprise in the State of Nevada and in America.
About
Nevada Families' achievements prove that citizen-volunteers can make a difference in our local communities, in Carson City at the State Capitol and in Congress. We also work to elect candidates at every level and articulate pro-constitution, conservative and pro-family policies through the media.
Nevada Families has published the Nevada Families Voter Guide every general election since 1988. Nevada Families asks candidates the hard questions so that voters can be informed where candidates stand on critical issues. The Voter Guide also includes the voting records of state legislators on important issues.

We need your support! The leadership of Nevada Families for Freedom has represented Families, Taxpayers and the Unborn every Nevada Legislative Session since 1971. No other organization has provided this critical leadership so consistently. We operate solely on the free will gifts of those who wish to support our efforts year in and year out. Your contributions make our work for Life, Liberty and Family possible.
Thank you,
Janine Hansen, State President

I will be presenting Citizen Lobbyist Workshops in January and the first two weeks in February. I am happy to present a workshop to your organization.
Our efforts during the 2023 Legislature were critical to stopping many atrocious Democrat bills. We provided public opposition through emails, phones, testimony in person, on the phone and in writing. We were able to successfully support the Legislators who opposed the bills and give them courage to oppose the Legislation. This was critical in making the Governors vetoes possible, because he said he needed the Republicans to vote together in opposition so he would have the support he needed to veto bad bills. The Governor vetoed 75 bills and many others never passed!
There are already 982 Bill Draft Requests submitted to the Legislature. Of course, we can’t read anything but single sentence description. There will probably be about 1,200 bills submitted for 2025. There are many bills regarding elections including one from the Secretary of State and one on campaign finance. Other bills regard education, early childhood and pre-kindergarten, public lands, health care, sex trafficking, gun control, First Amendment, parental rights, taxes, water, adoption, Tahoe Regional Planning Agency, Nevada Office of Cyber Defense Coordination, energy, crime and public safety. One from a Democrat revises provisions for illegal aliens driver’s authorization cards and from a liberal Senator, transgenders and hate crimes, This one sounds good from Republican Assemblyman Gurr, “Establishes requirements relating to the determination of biological sex in athletes.” Another excludes squatters from certain protections available to tenants. One resolution we oppose calls for an Article V Constitutional Convention (which we oppose.)
We want to be ready to support good bills and oppose the bad ones!
