Nevada Commission on Ethics

The Nevada Commission on Ethics is a commission that investigates ethics violations by government officials or employees in the state of Nevada in the United States.

In 1975, the Nevada Legislature passed the Nevada Ethics in Government Law, creating the State Ethics Commission. The law was struck down in 1976 by the Nevada Supreme Court for being unconstitutionally vague. The legislature passed a revised law in 1977, creating the Executive Ethics Commission and the Legislative Ethics Commission. The two commissions were dissolved in 1985 and replaced with the commission in its present form.
