Nevada’s onerous licensing requirements mean countless Nevadans have to pay high licensing fees to government every year, simply for permission to earn a livelihood.

Nevada’s occupational licensing ranks 2nd-worst in the nation for lower-income careers (cosmetologists, interior designers, painters, barbers), according to Institute for Justice—and it’s making it harder than ever for these Nevadans to get back on their feet after more than a year of shutdowns, unemployment and government restrictions.

Many skilled Nevadans are struggling to afford the very licenses that allow them to work in the first place. It’s well past time for these licensing fees to be cut back—or even eliminated altogether.

Join a growing community of workers dedicated to reforming this unfair pay-to-work model in Nevada, and let’s make it affordable once again to earn a livelihood!
