UPDATES:

Election Results Certified: For the past two weeks our local elections officials have been working diligently to make sure that every vote is counted. Today is the deadline for the Secretary of State to certify Nevada's election results. You can see the updated results at silverstateelection.nv.gov.

Eviction Moratorium: While the state's eviction moratorium has ended, the CDC issued a national moratorium on most evictions for tenants impacted by COVID through December 31, 2020. You’re covered by the moratorium order if you:

Are unable to pay full rent due to loss of income or medical expenses
Make less than $99,000 in annual income or received a stimulus check
Would become homeless or have to live in crowded/substandard housing if evicted
Have tried to access government assistance for rent or housing
Have tried to make partial payments based on what you can afford

For more information about the Center for Disease Control's (CDC) Eviction Moratorium, check out these fact sheets from Legal Aid of Southern Nevada.

TAKE ACTION:

Donate to PLAN's Undocumented Emergency Relief Fund: Please donate to PLAN’s emergency relief fund for front line workers and families in Nevada who are not eligible for CARES or other COVID relief. The PLAN Citizenship Office will review applications and provide $300 to families at risk for eviction, food insecurity, and other hardships. If you have questions please contact ecastro@planevada.org or call 775-238-3416.
