We are monitoring other areas where fellow States have taken action, like swimming pools and gyms. We will continue to monitor compliance in these areas, as well as follow the COVID-19 data, and continue to evaluate and take action as necessary. — PolitiTweet.org

And while this directive does not prohibit indoor dining, I am strongly encouraging all food establishments to promote outdoor dining as much as possible as well. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

In addition to the rollback on bars in certain counties, I am also adding new statewide restrictions: all restaurants and food establishments, like pubs, breweries, distilleries, & wineries may not seat parties larger than six people -- indoors or outdoors. — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, our HHS teams are confirming the criteria that would designate a county in Nevada as a hotspot. Tomorrow, I will be releasing that criteria and the names of the counties that will be required to close bars tomorrow at 11:59pm, per this directive. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

In states where we have seen significant spikes they have taken actions to roll back bars. Recently, Dr. Fauci, the US's top infectious-disease expert, advised congregating in bars is one of the most dangerous things people could do. We must heed his advice. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Tonight, I announced that as of 11:59pm tomorrow bars in certain counties in Nevada will be returning to similar restrictions laid out in Phase 1 of our Nevada United: Roadmap to Recovery. We know COVID-19 can easily spread when people are congregating for long periods of time. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Across the country, we have seen far too many instances where hospital capacity appeared fine one day and then were overwhelmed the next with increased COVID-19 patients. We do not want that to happen in NV. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

We know it will take several weeks for the mitigations we have put in place reflect in our case data, but these measures will help us battle this virus. The State has also been watching compliance information, led by OSHA and complemented by efforts in counties and cities. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I have been pleased to see State and local officials working with businesses and communities to enforce these important measures. Nevadans, by and large, continue to heed the call to protect themselves, each other and our State. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

We have taken steps to help slow the spread, including increasing our contact tracing efforts, extending Phase 2 until at least the end of July and implementing a mandatory face covering directive, which took effect at the end of June. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

As you know, we are currently holding in Phase 2 of our Roadmap to Recovery plan, allowing our medical, public health and emergency response professionals to evaluate and analyze new trends that have shown a continuous upward trend of new daily cases. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

This evening, I updated Nevadans on our response to the COVID-19 outbreak, and the latest actions we are taking as a State to help slow the spread. We can't forget we are still in the midst of a highly contagious and deadly pandemic, and that many areas are experiencing a spike. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I’ll forever be grateful for their service, leadership, long hours, and unending commitment to the people of Nevada during this unimaginable time. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

As they help Nevada deal with COVID-19, they’ve also stepped up to help address our subsequent fiscal crisis by proposing solutions to our budget shortfall. Just like me, I know this was a daunting and painful task. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Taking a moment to thank all of NV’s agency directors & staff for their hard work & commitment throughout this historic pandemic & fiscal crisis. In the last four months, they’ve dedicated themselves to providing services & helping us navigate an unprecedented situation. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, I ordered the flags at half-staff in remembrance of NHP Sgt. Ben Jenkins, whose funeral is being held today in Elko. The First Lady & I are just as heartbroken today as when we first got the news but we know his memory lives on through his family and loved ones. https://t.co/ksQKT93GZF — PolitiTweet.org

Once the budget shortfall is addressed, I plan to issue a subsequent proclamation for the legislature to consider policy items that rise to the extraordinary occasion of a special session. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

I understand that the #COVID19 public health crisis has put us in the position to make very painful decisions on the State budget, but I am confident we will be able to overcome this challenge together and forge a new path forward. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Today, I issued the formal proclamation to call the Nevada Legislature into a special session beginning tomorrow at 9 a.m. to address the historic budget shortfall. I am eager to work with our Nevada lawmakers on this difficult undertaking. https://t.co/U87mQuQON8 — PolitiTweet.org

The world looks incredibly different since when I first approved our State’s biennial budget back in June 2019. The difficult decisions for Fiscal Year 2021 now lay ahead of us. My proposal preserves as much funding as possible for health, education and the state workforce. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Sisolak ARCHIVE @GovSisolak

Today, I am releasing a COVID19 Fiscal Report, which includes details of the Fiscal Year 2021 budget ahead of the Nevada Legislative Special Session planned for Wednesday. None of us could have predicted a pandemic of this magnitude and the global economic crisis that followed. https://t.co/e925h5daVl — PolitiTweet.org
