The Nevada Restaurant Association is founding a political action committee ahead of the 2026 election cycle.

On Monday members of NvRA received a message from the association to join as a founding member of its PAC in preparation for the 2026 cycle. According to the email, the PAC will give the industry “the structure needed to protect past gains and influence upcoming policy debates.”

“Over the past couple years, especially since COVID, restaurants have been facing a lot of legislative pressure,” said Peter Saba, government affairs and communications manager for NvRA. “We just want to get more active in that sense and try to support pro-restaurant candidates on the ballot.”
