Amodei’s Lands Bill for Northern Nevada | Las Vegas News

Congressman Mark Amodei is racing against time to pass a landmark lands bill for Northern Nevada before his retirement, a decade-long effort to balance development with conservation on the state’s vast federal lands. Focused on resolving historic “checkerboarded” land issues in Pershing County, the bill also includes flood control, parks, and cultural site transfers to the Washoe Tribe in Douglas County. Facing a divided Congress and past controversies, Amodei is rallying bipartisan support, pushing the bill through a House committee and coordinating with Nevada’s senators to clear Senate hurdles. With the fate of Northern Nevada’s future on the line, he’s determined to see this through — not just as a political capstone, but as a lasting legacy for his home state.
