Nevada has NO statewide limit on rent increases.
Rent can jump 25–35% or more, forcing families to make impossible choices.

Seniors and people with disabilities are especially vulnerable because many live on fixed incomes. They cannot simply “make more money” when housing costs suddenly rise.

Right now, people can also lose housing without cause — even when they have paid rent on time and followed the rules.

This instability impacts entire communities.

Rent stabilization can:
• Prevent extreme rent hikes
• Help families remain housed
• Create predictable housing costs
• Reduce the risk of homelessness

Housing is more than a commodity. It is about dignity, stability, and caring for our neighbors.

As Lutherans, we believe our lives have a calling, not just inward devotion, but outward transformation. To follow this calling is to work for justice.

If your heart stirs for change, here is your invitation:

• Join us in public witness, advocacy, service

• Bring your gifts, voice, hands, prayer, community, into this shared work

• Be a bridge across traditions and communities

We don’t need uniform belief. We need shared resolve. We don’t ask you to sign on to every platform. We ask you to commit your faith to justice in Nevada.

Will you join us in this calling?

Election years are a significant time for Lutherans to be active in civic engagement, and congregations and rostered ministers must ensure that activities related to the electoral process are transparent, nonpartisan and legal. This updated guide shares important considerations. https://resources.elca.org/advocacy/being-a-public-church/

Called to be Political explores the Christian call and responsibility of civic engagement. This updated and refreshed version of the Women of the ELCA’s popular resource includes the reflection of four Lutheran women on faith and politics. Additional listings of current voting and advocacy resources are included.

As the June primary quickly approaches, we are reminding communities across Nevada that every election matters and every vote has an impact.

Now is the time to check your voter registration status.
