A bill requiring daily room cleaning in all Nevada hotel rooms may be put to bed before even receiving a hearing.
In a social media post on X, formerly Twitter, late Wednesday evening, Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo wrote the proposal was “no different than the law that was repealed in the last session on a bipartisan basis.”
He said he didn’t see a good public policy reason to reinstate COVID-era room cleaning requirements.
“I encourage the Legislature to disregard the bill because I will not sign it,” the governor wrote.
The announcement marks the first bill the governor has said he will veto and followed Lombardo’s first public statement Monday about his stance on vetoing legislation this session. In that statement, Lombardo said he would only sign legislation that protects and expands school choice opportunities.
