Abstract

Elected leadership of Southern Nevada met to discuss the region’s governance, K‐12 education, higher education, infrastructure, economic development, and health care needs. From that bipartisan discussion emerged policy priorities for the 77th Session of the Nevada Legislature. After the legislative session, Brookings Mountain West released a report titled, "Advancing Southern Nevada’s Regional Priorities: Overview of the 77th Session of the Nevada Legislature," which examined the degree to which the region’s elected senators and assembly members advanced these priorities and represented the interests of Southern Nevada in state government.
