Democratic State Senator Nicole Cannizzaro has been re-elected as Nevada Senate Majority Leader for a fourth consecutive term. She is the first woman to hold the title and leads the nation's only female majority legislature, as reported by 8NewsNow.

"Our first priority will always be the people of Nevada. I am excited to get back to work to bring down costs, protect our rights from federal overreach, make housing more affordable, and ensure all Nevadans have access to quality and affordable health care," Cannizzaro said, according to 8NewsNow. Her accomplishments include expanding collective bargaining rights for state employees and sponsoring a public option to lower health insurance costs.

The political landscape in Nevada remains firmly Democratic in the Senate, as seen in the recent elections. Cannizzaro's leadership in passing the state's largest education budget strengthens confidence in her role. According to 2 News, she remains committed to addressing key issues important to Nevadan welfare.

Cannizzaro plans to announce her leadership team, committee chairs, and assignments ahead of the upcoming legislative session. She expressed gratitude for her re-election as Majority Leader, noting, "This year, Nevada voters sustained a strong Democratic majority in the state senate, and I am grateful that my colleagues have again selected me to serve as their Majority Leader," in a 2 News report.
