Reminder: Your Voice Matters, Support AB599 Today

Five days left in the session, to pass AB599

Dear Parents,


I’m excited to share that AB 599 would:


  • Expand access to school‑choice scholarships for more low‑income families
  • Improve transparency with regular, public reporting on scholarship use
  • Enhance accountability by requiring scholarship organizations to demonstrate real results


With only days left in this session, AB599 needs a committee hearing—or it dies. Will you help us make sure parents’ voices are heard?

Legislative Update: Action Needed on Governor Lombardo's Education Bill

Dear Powerful Parents,


At 4:30 today, Governor Joe Lombardo's education bill (AB584) will get a hearing in the Committee on Ways and Means. This bill represents a significant shift towards educational accountability statewide, The governor has made improving education in Nevada the centerpiece of his administration and is working hard to make sure we see progress this legislative session. The bill is large, but here are some of the highlights:


  • (Section 38): Establishes an account enabling parents of students attending chronically low‑performing schools to access alternative settings either public, charter, or private .
  • (Sections 22–24): Requires districts to allow transfers across attendance zones, with required transportation support for students leaving low‑performing schools .
  • (Sections 25–27): Sets up a $1 million “Empowering Parents Account” to fund K–3 reading interventions, with priority based on household income. .
  • (Section 17) Funds teacher and administrator incentives that awards performance-based bonuses.


Governor Lombardo's bill balances school choice options with needed financial support for public school improvements. These provisions will help improve education in Nevada and provides real hope for students trapped in failing schools with few options. Please click the link below to write to your representatives and ask them to support this bill. We have a letter written, but feel free to change it to reflect your thoughts on the bill.


Thank you for your advocacy. Together, we can make positive things happen for education and families in Nevada!

In addition to providing programs that strengthen families and empower parents to advocate for their children, much of our work happens quietly behind the scenes—ensuring parents are represented where decisions are made. Your support helps us continue this important work: defending parental rights and expanding school choice across Nevada. When you stand up for one child, you stand up for many.

Important Call to Action- Protect Local Control and Parental Rights

WHY WE WANT ASSEMBLY MEMBERS

TO VOTE "NO" ON AB464

Assembly Bill 464 (AB464) AB464 strips away local control and embeds permanent curriculum mandates in Nevada law, including controversial and ideologically driven content like Social Emotional Learning (SEL), diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and reproductive education. It prohibits school boards, principals, and teachers from adjusting or removing these standards, even if they conflict with community values or parental concerns. The bill not only eliminates flexibility in how and what students are taught but also mandates punishment for educators or administrators who dissent. AB464 bypasses the democratic process and silences the voices of parents, school leaders, and local communities. For the sake of transparency, accountability, and educational freedom, we urge legislators to vote NO on AB464.


You can read AB464 here.
