Rx for Nevada
AARP Nevada's Rx for Nevada legislative campaign is already underway and we will need your help to let legislators know Nevadans care about these issues. We encourage you to call or email your elected state representatives. Tell them you support our Rx for Nevada agenda including the bills we're working on. See the latest issue of the Nevada Update, Three Key Bills to Support (page 3) for specifics about the bills.
Who are my legislators and how do I contact them?
To easily identify and contact your legislator, go to the Nevada Legislature Web site. Use this site to stay in contact with the people you elected to represent you in Carson City.
Where can I find info about AARP Nevada's Rx for Nevada Campaign?
