Nevada Firearms Coalition NEVADA FIREARMS COALITION 5575 Simmons Street, Suite 1-176 North Las Vegas, Nevada 89031 702-373-5935 www.nvfac.org www.facebook.com/nvfac [email protected] March 4, 2019 RE: AB 202 Steve Yeager, Chair Assembly Judiciary Committee Nevada State Assembly Dear Chair Yeager; The Nevada Firearms Coalition SUPPORTS AB 202 for the following reasons: This bill expands the provisions of NRS 202.265 to include the Nevada System of Higher Education for limited possession of certain weapons by peace officers, school security or written permittees. It also allows for the locked storage of handguns in vehicles on community college property. It also expands the provisions of NRS 202.3673 to provide the same provisions to those with concealed carry permit. This is a logical amendment to the current law to allow the peace officers and law abiding citizens to be able to store their handguns while attending community college. Sincerely, Don Turner, President cc: Lesley Cohen Rochelle Nguyen Alexis Hansen Shea Backus Sarah Peters Lisa Krasner Skip Daly Selena Torres Tom Roberts Ozzie Fumo Howard Watts Jill Tolles Brittney Miller Chris Edwards The Nevada Firearms Coalition is dedicated to the safe use of firearms for self-defense, competition, recreation and hunting.

  • Libertarian Party of Nevada Hosted "Speed Dating" Events Over 2 Days at Different Venues in Las Vegas
    Endorsement Committee This year, we formed an Endorsement Committee comprised of 18 members plus additional Libertarian leadership; the “Committee.” The Committee members conducted their own independent research on each of the candidates and asked them questions at our events. The Committee members took notes and made recommendations on grades and endorsements. Endorsement Committee Chair: Jason Weinman Committee Members: Jason G Smith Jim Duensing Jason Nellis Lesley Chan John McCormack JD Smith Lou Pombo Brady Bowyer Scott Lafata Tim Hagan Brett H. Pojunis Brandon Ellyson Debra Dedmon Nick Klein Andrew Lea Ross Williams Tarina Dark Steve Brown Format - Why "Speed Dating?" The Libertarian Party of Nevada hosted "Speed Dating" events over 2 days at different venues in Las Vegas. The goal was to meet as many candidates as possible in a format similar to speed dating. LPNevada endorsed Candidates in non‐partisan races and graded Candidates in partisan races for the 2014 General Elections. Most organizations do not get one‐on‐one interaction with the candidates; we felt this is important. Endorsements and Grading Non‐Partisan candidates received either a positive (thumbs up) or negative (thumbs down) endorsement from the Committee. Partisan Candidates received a grade of 1 to 5 stars. Candidates who received 1 star were not very Libertarian and candidates who received 5 stars were very good in regards to their position on issues important to Libertarians. The Libertarian Party of Nevada has the following 15 Candidate on the 2014 Ballot. Adam Sanacore, Assembly District 21 Lou Pombo, Assembly District 37 Chris Dailey, White Pine County Commission Louis Gabriel, Assembly District 32 Donald W.
