🏈 Happy Friday, #NV and #SuperBowl weekend!

While the #Seahawks and #Patriots get ready to face off on Sunday, we’re celebrating some wins of our own here at home!

Outdoor recreation supports 75,000+ jobs in #NV and powers a $24B economy. And when decisions about our lands shift, our communities feel it.

We’re grateful for @cortezmasto.senate.gov and @rosen.senate.gob for always standing up for our #PublicLands.

Let’s keep protecting what makes #NV home.

📰 In a new Op-Ed in the #RGJ, our partners at #FriendsofNVWild urge Nevadans to take a closer look at 'Sell-Off Steve’s' record and how his leadership could put our #PublicLands at risk.

Read the full Op-Ed at the link in our bio.

Nevada senators prioritize affordability as families struggle with rising costs Nevada Sens. Cortez Masto and Rosen make affordability top priority, proposing legislation to tackle tariffs, housing costs and energy expenses.

Families are sounding the alarm: costs keep rising, especially energy bills.

Grateful @cortezmasto.senate.gov and @rosen.senate.gov are listening, and we're proud to see legislation to restore energy-efficiency tax credits and lower costs.

🌴 Happy Friday, #NV!

This week, we saw #GoodClimateNews for wildlife, water conservation, and the places we love, from Sheldon National Wildlife Refuge and beyond.

Call #NV's U.S. Senators to thank them for voting 'NO' and urge them to oppose any funding for ICE:

@cortezmasto.senate.gov: (202) 224-3542
@rosen.senate.gov: (202) 224-6244

📞 What can we do? Keep up the pressure!

Yesterday, our Senators voted NO to give ICE more of our tax dollars.

That vote shows our calls and public pressure are working. But accountability doesn’t stop there.

We stand with our partners at @lcv.org and with leaders demanding oversight and accountability, including holding DHS officials and Secretary Kristi Noem, responsible for reckless and unlawful actions.

We’re also grateful to #NV's federal delegation for speaking up when it matters most.

When systems operate without checks and balances, our most vulnerable communities pay the price, from environmental harm to violations of civil rights.

We condemn violence in all forms and reject fear and intimidation as tools to protect the powerful and keep our communities afraid and divided.

What we're witnessing in Minnesota and communities across the country is not disconnected from our work.

This is the result of a few powerful people deciding that certain communities don't deserve the same rights, safety, or dignity as everyone else.

A healthy democracy depends on the rule of law, basic rights, and accountability.

We are deeply disturbed by the Trump administration’s actions through #DHS and #ICE that are terrorizing communities and, most recently in Minnesota, contributed to violence and the tragic loss of lives.

📰 We’re heading into this weekend with 5️⃣ pieces of #GoodClimateNews!

Across #NV, Nevadans came together this week to celebrate our public lands, outdoor recreation, and more.

3/ The column encourages us to slow down, look at the facts, and think about how these projects fit into our state's long-term future.

2/ Reporting states:

1️⃣ Data centers help power everyday tools we all use, like search engines, social media, and AI.
2️⃣ But they also need large amounts of water and energy, which can be challenging in a dry state like ours...

Does Nevada need all the data centers? The partially inaccurate line attributed to the Kevin Costner film "Field of Dreams," “If you build it, they will come,” is often used to justify the creation of something different. Like the movie — if you build an iconic baseball diamond in the middle of an Iowa cornfield, your passed-away father may return and “have a catch” with you.

🧵 ICYMI: Reno now ranks among the world’s top emerging data center markets.

A new Op-Ed looks at the rapid growth of data centers in #NNV and raises questions many of us are starting to ask.

#RGJ reports: buff.ly/Eihew1h

Landing Page - Utility Watch NV Nevadans Demand: Cost-Saving Clean Energy Nevada’s energy future belongs to us, not corporations. Stand up against monopoly utilities and expensive, polluting fossil fuel projects. DEMAND ACTION…

3/ We all deserve a system that follows the rules and protects Nevadans from paying more than we should.

If you agree, add your name at UtilityWatchNV.org to stand up for transparency, fairness, and real consumer protections.

2/ According to the PUCN, this marks the fifth time NV Energy has tried to recover costs regulators said should not come out of our bills.

In the midst of a $65.5M overcharge scandal, accountability matters.

NV Energy could be fined $1M. Here’s what to know The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada has recommended a $1 million fine against NV Energy for attempting to pass repair costs onto ratepayers during its 2025 general rate case.

📣 Nevadans shouldn’t be stuck paying for costs regulators said we don’t owe.

State investigators are considering a $1M fine after the monopoly utility tried to include repair costs, even though the #PUCN had explicitly ordered those costs excluded.
