Our Legislative Priorities are brought to you by N

Our Legislative Priorities are brought to you by NDNV Tribal and State Policy Coordinator Erika, who has been super busy tracking the 80 bills we have been following this legislative session!👏

The following are bills we are tracking, and support and the headline is stating if they passed or failed this week.

The legislative "crossover process" refers to the point in a legislative session where a bill that originated in one chamber of the legislature (like the House) must be sent to the other chamber (like the Senate) for consideration, essentially marking the deadline for a bill to move forward to the opposite chamber for further debate and potential passage; if a bill doesn't "cross over" by this deadline, it is unlikely to be considered by the other chamber.
