Bill overview
This bill allows Nevada law enforcement agencies to require applicants for certain jobs, particularly those involving firearms, to provide an attestation about any cannabis use they’ve had in the 12 months before applying for the position. This is a change from existing law which prohibited such attestations as a condition of employment. The bill clarifies that this requirement applies specifically to positions where officers would be authorized or required to carry a firearm.
