Brothers & Sisters,
I’m sending this message with an important update that directly impacts the benefits and protections our members have relied on for more than three decades.
On November 13th, the Nevada Supreme Court issued its opinion in Holguin v. City of Henderson, striking down long-standing lung disease protections for Nevada’s first responders. The Court ruled that:
The conclusive presumption under NRS 617.455(5) no longer stands alone.
Members must now prove exposure to heat, smoke, fumes, tear gas, or noxious gases.
Communicable diseases, including COVID-19, are excluded outright.
This decision removes 35+ years of established protection and places all pending and future lung claims at serious risk.
Thankfully, we acted quickly.
Working directly with state legislators during the current Special Session, we secured passage of Senate Bill 7 — with strong bipartisan support in both the Senate and Assembly.
But now the bill sits on Governor Lombardo’s desk, awaiting signature.
This is our final step.
We need every Local 1285 member to take one minute and tell the Governor you support SB 7 becoming law.

Your voice genuinely matters here. When we speak collectively, we win battles like this. Fire PAC made it possible for us to secure legislative support — now we need to finish the job.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Stay safe and stay united.
Fraternally,
Beau McDougall

On November 13th, the Nevada Supreme Court issued a ruling that stripped away long‑standing protections for lung disease claims for first responders. For decades, firefighters and police officers had conclusive presumptive coverage for lung disease. That protection is now gone.
Thankfully, we were able to work with state legislators quickly in the current Special Session of the State Legislature and the Legislature passed SB 7. Passed with overwhelming bi-partisan support in both our State Senate and Assembly, SB 7 would restore these protections.

You can help us protect first responders statewide by letting the Governor know you support SB 7 and ensuring that the men and women who risk their health every day and their families are not left unprotected.
