Nevada AB123 prohibits threats against individuals during political campaign communications.

Nevada AB123 amends election communications law by prohibiting individuals from making threats against others during political campaign speeches or communications. The bill defines a "true threat" as a statement made with conscious disregard for the risk of harm and that places the threatened person in reasonable fear of being harmed. Violators face misdemeanor charges for a first offense and gross misdemeanor charges for subsequent offenses. The law aims to balance free speech with the need to prevent threats that cause fear and potential harm.
