Last year, the Nevada Policy Research Institute spearheaded a broad and diverse coalition to strengthen the state’s transparency laws. The coalition included everyone from the ACLU to virtually all media organizations in the state—and those efforts resulted in policy changes that have had substantive impact on government transparency.

That success resulted in an even larger group of supporters, partners, and advocates asking to be a part of the coalition. And so, an independent organization, the Nevada for Open Government Coalition, has been formed as a permanent transparency-focused nonprofit, with Nevada Policy named as a permanent board member.

Between now and the 2021 legislative session, Nevada Policy is building on this success. The organization is strategically partnering with groups from all over the political spectrum on key issues, to continue to move sound policy solutions forward—regardless of what the state’s political landscape looks like in the next session.
