Policing and Courts

Nevada lawmakers passed the “Safe Streets and Neighborhoods Act” and sent it to Gov. Joe Lombardo’s desk at the close of a Nov. 19, 2025 special session; the bill revives the Resort Corridor Court to impose one‑year bans on certain low‑level offenders from the Las Vegas Strip, stiffens penalties for repeat and specified crimes, and adds annual public reporting and detention‑list requirements after earlier operations lacked transparency. Supporters — including the Nevada Resort Association, major casinos and the Culinary Union — say the measures protect guests and workers amid tourism and crime concerns, while critics like the ACLU warn of constitutional and homelessness impacts; Democrats’ amendments also bar law enforcement, including immigration officers, from entering school grounds without a warrant or obtaining student information, and Lombardo may oppose or veto the revised package.
