What This Bill Proposed

Nevada Senate Bill 144 expands financial disclosure requirements for public officers and candidates to require reporting of any business entity stock or securities valued at $5,000 or more, effective July 1, 2025. Previously, disclosure was required only for holdings representing 1 percent or more of a business entity's total outstanding stock. The measure applies to the public officer, candidate, or any member of their household.

Why it matters

Public officers and candidates must publicly list additional corporate holdings that cross the dollar threshold even if they represent a tiny fraction of a large company, increasing transparency regarding potential financial conflicts of interest.
