We're introducing the Southern Nevada Economic Development and Conservation Act to balance Nevada's economic growth with environmental protection. This legislature enhances opportunities for Tribal empowerment, supports local government projects, expands protected wilderness areas, promotes sustainable land use, and designates off-highway vehicle recreation zones. Through this, we aim to create a harmonious relationship between development and conservation to benefit both current and future generations in Nevada.
