Nevada Policy Launches the 2025 Legislative Scorecard

A Tool for Transparency and Accountability 

For 16 years, Nevada Policy has published a legislative scorecard to give citizens a clear, nonpartisan look at how their representatives vote on issues that affect personal freedom. Our 2025 Scorecard continues this tradition, empowering Nevadans with reliable information about where lawmakers truly stand on liberty – based on their voting record.  

This year, we’ve made it easier than ever to explore the results. With our brand-new Legislative Lookup Tool at lookup.nevadapolicy.org, you can simply enter your address to see who represents you and how they scored across eight key areas. 

Why It Matters 

By filtering out ambiguous legislation and focusing only on bills with clear consequences, we give Nevadans a trustworthy measure of their representatives’ commitment to freedom of individuals and markets. 

The 2025 scorecard reveals who stood with Nevadans—and who sided with bigger government, higher taxes, and special interests. 

How We Reach Our Scores 

Throughout each legislative session, Nevada Policy tracks key bills introduced across 8 policy areas. You can follow this process in real time during the session using our Bill Tracker

When it comes to scoring, we don’t grade everything. Many proposals are nuanced and contain both positive and negative elements. To keep our scorecard focused and reliable, we only include votes on bills where the effect on individual liberty is unambiguous. In 2025, this meant scoring lawmakers on 66 bills

Weighted for Impact 

Not all bills are created equal. Some may have only a minor effect, while others could have enormous consequences for taxpayers and personal freedom. 

That’s why we use a weighting system developed by the National Taxpayers Union. Each bill is assigned a weight from 1 to 100, with most bills set at 10. In 2025, weights ranged from 10 to 90, with the highest score assigned to a proposal that would have cost Nevadans nearly $2 billion in film subsidies. 

This system ensures that major votes—like tax hikes or massive spending increases—carry the weight they deserve in evaluating a legislator’s record. 

Highlights from 2025 

In this session, Senate Minority Leader Robin Titus once again earned the distinction of Taxpayers’ Best Friend, achieving the highest score for the second consecutive term. 

It’s important to note that Nevada Policy does not treat a score as a traditional letter grade. Instead, lawmakers who score above 50% are considered general supporters of individual liberty. Still, Titus’s near-perfect score stands out as exceptional.
