SCR 7 Nevada Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Creates a joint special committee to conduct a study concerning housekeeping operations at hotels in this State. (BDR R-1255)

SCR 7 is a procedural resolution creating a joint special committee to study housekeeping operations at Nevada hotels. The committee, composed of six legislators (three from each chamber with specific leadership appointments), will examine how to support housekeeping staff - critical to the tourism industry - by assessing room cleaning frequency, guest service options, and industry impacts. It must gather input from hotel staff, labor groups, and tourism experts, then submit findings and potential legislative recommendations to the Governor and Legislature by July 2026. This study does not enact new laws but may lead to future bills addressing housekeeping needs during the 2026-2027 legislative session. The committee must meet at least twice during the 2025-2026 interim period.
