Statement from Governor Lombardo Following Completion of Bill Signings

From: Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo
June 13, 2025

Carson City - On June 13, 2025 marks the conclusion of the 10-day period Governor Lombardo has to veto or sign bills into law following the adjournment of the 83rd (2025) Session of the Nevada Legislature. In total, Governor Lombardo received 605 bills, ultimately signing 518 bills into law and vetoing 87 bills.

Please see the full statement from Governor Lombardo below:

“I am proud of the meaningful progress we made this session – particularly in the areas of education and housing. Working together, we’ve taken important steps to expand educational opportunity, begin restoring accountability in our public schools, and make housing more attainable for working families across our state.

“That said, I did not take lightly the decision to veto 87 bills. I do not enjoy using the veto pen, but as Governor, it is my responsibility to protect Nevadans from legislation that goes too far, expands government unnecessarily, or creates unintended consequences that hurt families, businesses, or our economy.

“Each veto was carefully considered. My priority will always be to ensure that every law enacted serves the best interest of the people of Nevada – not special interests, and not bigger government.

“To the legislators who worked in good faith throughout this session: thank you. I remain committed to working with you to build a stronger, safer, and more affordable Nevada for all.”

In the coming weeks, Governor Lombardo will host ceremonial bill signings for Senate Bill 460, the landmark bipartisan education reform package, and Assembly Bill 540, the Nevada Housing Access and Attainability Act. Media advisories to follow.
