Nevada Assembly Democrats Submit a Bill Calling for an Audit of CCSD, Ensuring New Funding Formula Achieves Goal

Las Vegas, NV – The Assembly Committee on Ways & Means has submitted a Bill Draft Request calling for a legislative audit of the Clark County School District (CCSD) for consideration by the 2023 Legislature.

“Financial transparency and accountability is key to ensuring confidence in CCSD. I requested this bill because my constituents routinely ask me about this issue. This request for a legislative audit will allow the Legislature to more proactively engage with CCSD to fully answer these questions to the satisfaction of parents, students, teachers, and staff impacted by these decisions. We look forward to working collaboratively with CCSD leadership on the audit,” said Assemblywoman Maggie Carlton, Chair of the Assembly Committee on Ways & Means.

“As a retired Clark County educator, I spent my career providing our children the best education possible,” said Sen. Marilyn Dondero Loop. She continued, “As a Senator, my job is to ensure that dollars are going where they are intended, and that is to the classroom. I look forward to working on legislation being introduced by the Assembly Committee on Ways and Means to ensure accountability and transparency in the Clark County School District.”
