Senate passes bill restricting firearms within 100 feet of election sites after heated debate
The Nevada Senate passed Assembly Bill 105 on May 29, 2025, a bill that, among other provisions, prohibits a person from possessing or causing a firearm to be present within 100 feet of an entrance to a location reasonably believed to be an election site. The measure passed and was ordered to the Assembly by a vote of 13 yeas and 8 nays.

Senator Flores described the bill on the floor as prohibiting firearms “within a 100 feet of an entrance to a location reasonably believed to be an election site, including any location currently used as a polling place.”

Senator Titus rose in opposition, saying the measure “infringes on the amendment rights of law-abiding Nevadans” and that the 100-foot prohibition zone was “overly broad.” Titus said the language could criminalize concealed-carry permit holders who enter businesses or other private property near election activity. “The vague language risks ensnaring innocent citizens where election sites may be near homes or businesses, creating confusion and unfair penalties,” Titus said.

Titus also criticized the bill’s penalties, saying that “imposing gross misdemeanors or felony charges for unintentional violations is excessive and undermines personal freedoms.” She urged colleagues to reject the bill.

After the roll call, the Senate clerk reported 13 yes votes and 8 no votes; the bill received the constitutional majority and was declared passed and ordered to the Assembly.

The transcript records the principal floor statements and the final roll call totals; no amendment was recorded on the Senate floor during this consideration. The bill text, any exemptions, enforcement mechanisms and finer statutory cross-references were not detailed in the floor remarks included in the transcript and are therefore not specified here.
