Your immediate attention is needed on Senate Bill 78, which threatens to undermine the licensing system that protects Nevadans from financial harm. SB78 is set for a Senate floor vote. If enacted, this bill will:
- Strip away dedicated professional staff who ensure proper evaluation of CPA licensing requirements and conduct thorough investigations of financial misconduct
- Force the board and the public to rely on generalized staff lacking expertise in accounting
- Worsen existing audit backlogs at a time when Nevada already faces significant delays
- Create severe delays in licensing new CPAs in Nevada
Taken together, these changes would severely compromise the board’s ability to protect the public, serve the profession, and maintain professional standards in Nevada. You can read the NVCPA opinion piece posted in The Daily Indy here.
