Nevada is experiencing another surge of COVID-19 cases that could thwart the state’s economic recovery at a time when the safety net of unemployment benefits is due to end Sept. 4.
Gov. Steve Sisolak on Wednesday encouraged tenants to seek rental assistance, as thousands of Nevadans are expected to receive an eviction notice for nonpayment of rent once the federal eviction moratorium lifts Saturday.
Vaccinations, entertainment and some expensive prizes were offered at #VivaVaxVegas, a Strip-side vaccination clinic at Park MGM.
The state Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation on Thursday released new guidance and information on what claimants will need to do in order to receive jobless aid.
Gov. Steve Sisolak joined gaming and hospitality industry leaders in urging more people to get vaccinated.
The state is rolling out a new advertising campaign to convince more Nevadans to get vaccinated for COVID-19.
The state saw a 52.8 percent increase in initial claims filed for the week ending March 27, according to the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation.
The new federal Restaurant Revitalization Fund is expected to help Southern Nevada restaurants recover from the effects of the pandemic.
Local anti-homeless groups and tenant advocates applauded the move Monday, but a representative for a Nevada apartment association called the move “devastating” for struggling landlords.
The moratoriums, which have helped thousands of Nevadans stay in their homes, are set to expire in less than a week unless protections are extended.
Eligibility is expanding. High-risk residents 55 and older could also receive doses at pharmacies statewide starting next week.
“We know how important these extended benefits are to Nevadans and ensuring they receive them is our number one priority,” Elisa Cafferata, director of the Nevada Department of Employment, Training and Rehabilitation, said in a release Friday.
A state official said the department does not believe its unemployment system was hacked, but that claimants may have been victims of “several phishing and texting scams” that have resulted in personal information being stolen.
Gov. Steve Sisolak announced a phased pandemic reopening plan for the state that starts Monday with relaxed restrictions on business operations and certain public gatherings
