Office
of
the
governor
steve
siselek
november
12
2021,
the
honorable
jason
perez
and
speaker
of
the
assembly,
nevada,
state
assembly,
401,
south
carolina,
streetcars
and
city
lead
89701
to
the
honorable
members
of
the
nevada
state
assembly.
As
you
are
aware,
the
results
of
the
2020
decennial
census
were
delayed
due
to
the
copen
19
pandemic.
Nevada
did
not
receive
the
results
until
after
the
adjournment
of
the
81st
regular
session
of
the
legislature,
the
narrative
constitution,
article
5
section,
article
4,
section,
5
states-
that
quote
it
shall
be.
B
The
mandatory
duty
of
the
legislature
end
quote
to
apportion
the
senators
and
assembly
members
of
the
state
of
nevada.
According
to
the
number
of
inhabitants,
and
article
1
section
2
of
the
united
states
constitution
provides
that
after
each
decennial
census,
the
representatives
in
congress
shall
be
apportioned
among
the
states.
Article
5,
section,
9,
subsection
1
of
the
north
constitution,
provides
that
the
governor
may
on
extraordinary
occasions,
can
be
a
special
session
of
the
nevada
legislature
by
proclamation.
B
Therefore,
in
order
to
carry
out
the
duties
of
redistricting
and
reapportionment
pursuant
to
the
nomadic
constitution
and
the
united
states
constitution,
I
have
issued
a
proclamation
calling
the
legislature
into
a
special
session.
In
that
proclamation.
I
call
on
the
legislature
to
perform
its
mandatory
constitutional
duties
of
reapportionment
and
redistricting.
Additionally,
due
to
the
receipt
of
the
census
data,
I
request
that
the
legislature
temporarily
adjust
the
candidate
filing
deadline
for
judicial
candidates
to
coincide
with
the
deadlines
for
non-judicial
candidates
for
the
2022
election.

Mr
speaker,
I
am
mosh.
I
move
that
we
strike
rule
13.4,
subsection
2.,
which
requests
for
the
drafting
of
a
bill
setting
for
specific
boundary
of
the
state
can
only
be
made
by
the
redistricting
committee,
its
chair,
the
speaker
of
the
assembly
or
the
majority
leader
of
the
senate,
order
business
15.
Mr
speaker,.
A
F
Okay,
mr
speaker,
I
would
we'll
go
ahead
and
go
for
the
vote
and
we'll
call
for
the
motion.
C
Thank
you,
mr
speaker.
If
we
are
back
in
from
recess,
then
the
remarks
were
just
that
the
assembly
concur
version.
One
sets
out
the
rules,
and
so
I
believe
we
are
at
the
the
point
of
the
vote.
Unless
there
are
additional
remarks
for
the
record.
F
My
second
objection
to
this,
the
rule,
which
is
why
I
urge
the
body
not
to
support
this
rule,
is
under
section
13.4,
subsection
2,
where
the
only
folks
that
can
draft
request
a
draft
of
a
bill
of
any
amendment
would
be
the
committee
chair
of
the
subcommittees
as
speaker
of
the
assembly,
the
majority
leader
of
the
senate,
mr
speaker,
in
this
body.
A
Thank
you
there
being
no
further
remarks
for
the
body's
edification.
I
will
point
out
that
the
rules
that
are
before
you
today
are
rules
that
were
before
this
body
in
2011
when
we
last
had
redistributing-
and
I
believe
they
were
also
before
this
body
in
2015,
when
redistricting
rules
were
adopted
for
the
purpose
of
leaving
open
the
possibility
of
addressing
redistricting.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
that
folks
understand
that
this
is
not
a
novel
or
new
rule,
but
this
is
what
this
body
has
traditionally
considered
there
being
no
further
remarks.
A
Assemblywoman
titus
has
requested
a
division
of
the
house.
We
are
having
technical
difficulties,
so
I'm
going
to
do
a
count
by
virtue
of
individual
standing.
There
are
one.
E
C
C
Thank
you,
mr
speaker,
still
staying
under
order
business.
Eight.
I
move
that
the
persons
listed
on
the
nevada,
legislature's
press
accreditation
list
dated
november
12
2021
be
accepted
as
accredited
press
representatives
assigned
space
at
the
press
area
of
the
assembly
chambers
and
allowed
use
of
the
appropriate
broadcasting
facilities.
This
is
a
list
of
which
all
members
have
a
copy
of
on
their
desk.
A
You've
all
heard
the
motion-
all
those
in
favor,
please
think
about
saying
aye
opposed,
nay
motion
carries,
I
think,
because
we
have
some
processing
just
for
at
least
maybe
10
more
minutes.
A
C
C
So
for
those
who
are
on
the
committee,
you
will
be
the
ones
you
know
doing
the
voice
votes
when
the
when
chair
miller's
asking
for
those
for
those
voice
votes-
and
I
think
we've
got
miss
hoffacker
here
for
the
roll
call,
and
all
of
that
so
we'll
hand
it
over
to
chair
miller-
and
I
think
we've
got
broadcasting
is
broadcasting
this
also.
So
members
of
the
public
can
see
this
process.
G
Good
afternoon
I
would
like
to
call
the
assembly
a
select
committee
on
redistricting
and
elections
to
order
for
the
purpose
of
a
bill
draft
request,
introduction
we
have
the
committee
introduction
of
bdr
34
8
committee
members.
Today
we
have
one
committee
bdr
that
needs
introduction
to
this
committee.
We
would
like
this
to
be
done
today,
so
that
we
can
receive
the
bill
numbers
and
have
this
re
referred
to
committee
quickly.
G
Bdr348
is
a
measure
proposing
the
districts
for
the
unit
university
board
of
regents
and
changing
the
filing
date
for
the
judicial
candidates
just
for
the
period
of
the
2022
election
cycle.
I
want
to
remind
you
that
your
vote
to
introduce
the
bdr
is
in
no
way
an
indication
of
support.
This
is
for
the
committee's
approval
to
get
the
bill
in
process
assigned
a
number
and
referred
to
our
committee.
Do
I
have
a
motion
to
introduce
bdr348?
G
G
We
also
have
the
adoption
of
standing
policies
for
the
assembly
committee.
The
assembly
select
committee
on
redistricting
and
elections-
oh
okay,
I
would
like
to
take
of
the
members
only
on
the
assembly
select
committee,
a
vote
all
of
those
in
favor,
please
say
yay.
I
anyone
opposed
and
with
that
the
motion
carries.
G
G
I
understand
this
is
the
first
meeting
and
it
will
be
a
joint
hearing
with
the
senate
select
committee.
Therefore,
it
will
be
easier
for
us
to
adopt
it
right
now.
Our
committee
standing
policies
here
on
the
floor,
so
we
do
not
have
to
go
into
an
assembly
hearing
and
then
into
a
joint
hearing.
I
would
like
to
note
that
these
policies
are
similar
to
the
rules
that
you
have
approved
during
session.
Do
I
have
a
motion
to
introduce
these
committee
standing
rules?
G
A
We
go
to
order
business,
nine
introduction,
first,
reading
reference

the
deadline
for
a
candidate
for
judicial
office
to
file
a
declaration
of
candidacy
and
providing

mass
property

There
too,.
G
A
Assuming
woman
miller's
move
that
assuming
assembly
bill
will
be
referred
to
the
select
committee
on
rediction
in
elections,
all
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
police
signify
by
saying

We
will

Assemblywoman
dick
ben
now
is
the
appropriate
time
for
your
request.
E
Thank
you
so
much,
mr
speaker,
I'd
just
like
to
request
that
the
division
of
the
house
vote
on
acr,

be
recorded
by
name
in
the
official
record.
C
Thank
you,
mr
speaker,
before
I
make
a
motion
to
recess
the
body
just
wanted
to
give
kind
of
an
overview
of
what
some
logistics
might
look
like
the
select
committee.
The
goal
is
for
that
committee
to
meet
later
this
afternoon,
hopefully
in
about
an
hour's
time,
and
that
meeting
will
be
happening
in
4100.
A
C
Yes
in
the
morning:
yes,
yes
all
right!
Thank
you
so
much.
Well
then,
given
that
take
50
of
what
I
said
and
just
recycle
it
I'll
we'll
use
it
for
another
time,
take
the
other
50
and
it's
still
appropriately
retaining
to
this
conversation
I'll,
let
you
figure
out
which
part
members
so
given
that
mr
speaker,
I'd
move
that
we
adjourn
until
the
hour
of
9
30
a.m.
On
november
13,
2021.
