Greetings,

Each year, NAPSO gains more political strength to effectively lobby on behalf of our growing membership throughout the state.  In 2017, NAPSO was at the forefront of creating a statewide law enforcement coalition to speak with one voice at the Nevada legislature and throughout the cities and counties of our great state.  

Partisan and non-partisan candidates seek our endorsements each election year.  NAPSO's power extend not just to Carson City, but to our U.S. Congress as well.  NAPSO's endorsement process has been rewarding and highly successful.  We have discarded mere political party affiliations as the sole means to endorse a candidate.  Rather, we will endeavor to select candidates to receive our endorsements based on the content of their character, their desire to understand the issues that face our members, and their willingness to fight for the rights of the hard working women and men of law enforcement.   

Toward that goal, the following represents NAPSO's current endorsements for the 2026 general elections:
