![]() | Vote Early! Vote Smart! Check out Nevada's Progressive Voter Guide!Honest information can be hard to find in an election. Candidate's websites are helpful, but you know they never tell the whole story. Even in the age of Google it can be difficult to put into context all the information you do find. That's why we've put together Nevada's first every progressive voter guide. All the information you need to make an informed decision in the voting booth in one location. We document every federal, statewide, assembly, senate, and many county and judicial offices (provided there is at least one progressive in the race). Check out the Nevada Progressive Voter Guide! |
![]() | Bring Clean Energy Jobs to Nevada!Nevada has the best potential of any state for renewable energy development, with bountiful sun, consistent wind and fabulous soil. But for far too long we’ve been sold an energy plan that sees solar and wind and biomass as some distant future. That future has long ago begun and Nevada risks leaving its bounty unharvested. Renewable energy needs to be the first order of business in Nevada. Harvesting nature’s resources is not only good for the environment and a critical foreign policy goal, it’s a boon to the state’s economy. Out congressional leaders must commit real support for renewable energy development through commitments to support the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009.

![]() | Nevadans Deserve News Sources They Can TrustNevada's largest newspaper seems to have forgotten its critical role as an unbiased and fair watchdog of government. For too long the paper has been veering to the right, forging partnerships with conservatives that impact the fairness of the news coverage. Nevadans need a trusted and accountable source of local news reporting. That's why it's critical that the Review-Journal address the community's perceptions of the paper head-on. We urge the Review-Journal to appoint a public editor, or ombudsman, to address the paper's coverage and explain the paper's policies and actions to its readers. Sign the Petition to Demand a Public Editor! |
![]() | Stop the Water GrabWith growth in Las Vegas slowing and the economy in shambles, the Southern Nevada Water Authority is wrong to proceed with a 250-mile pipeline intended to suck water from rural Nevada to fuel future unsustainable growth. The multi-billion dollar project isn't just a boondoggle, it's bad health. We can live without that pricetag, but nothing in Nevada can live without water. The pipeline is wrong and must be stopped.
Take Action. Sign our online petition to say no to the water grab. |
![]() | Enough is Enough: Ensign must resignNevadans are struggling each day. We lack health care in record numbers; our neighborhoods have been decimated by foreclosure and unemployment continues to put more families in need of safety nets. Ensign has frequently stood in the way of progress. Now he's standing in the way of himself, hiding from the charges against him and remaining distracted from the critical work Congress must complete this year. Don't let Ensign's arrogance, which has already ripped apart families and abused the power of his office, stand in the way of progress.
Take Action. Sign our online petition urging Nevada's junior senator to step down. |
![]() | Progressives stand up for a powerful voice for NevadaSen. Harry Reid gets knocked on the left and right almost daily, but it's rare that he gets recognized for the good things he does for Nevada. Let's face it, he was among the first to criticize the Baucus health bill as not doing enough. He has secured hundreds of millions of dollars to help stimulate the economy here. Reid continues to stand for progressive policy and we stand by those efforts.
Show Harry Reid Nevada has his back. |
