Amends the Joint Standing Rules of the Senate and Assembly for the 83rd Session of the Legislature. (BDR R-1258)
SCR 8 amends the rules governing minority party representation on Nevada's Legislative Commission. It sets specific seat limits based on minority party size: one seat if minorities hold less than one-fifth of a chamber's seats, two seats if they hold at least one-fifth but less than half, and equal representation (three seats each) if minorities hold more than one-third. This procedural change directly affects how minority parties are represented on the Commission, which influences committee assignments and legislative process. The resolution was adopted by both chambers in June 2025.
