The January 16, 2025, meeting of the Nevada Commission on Ethics focused on several key topics, including outreach strategies and plans for the commission's fiftieth anniversary celebrations.

The meeting began with discussions on the commission's current engagement efforts. Members noted that interactions prior to the upcoming election and during the summer months had been limited. There was a consensus that most followers prefer to receive work-related information on professional platforms. As a result, the commission decided against joining the social media platform Blue Sky for the time being, emphasizing the need to adapt to changing circumstances to ensure effective outreach and education for public officers and employees.

The commission then shifted its focus to the upcoming fiftieth anniversary celebrations. Members revisited a proposal from the previous year regarding the creation of a commemorative coin in collaboration with the Nevada State Museum. The idea was well-received, with discussions about design options and the potential for funding. It was noted that the museum's press was operational again, which would facilitate the production of the coins.

Additionally, there was a suggestion to invite former Governor Brian, who played a significant role in restarting the commission, to participate in the anniversary celebrations. This idea was seen as a way to honor the commission's history and acknowledge its contributions to ethics in governance.

In conclusion, the meeting highlighted the commission's commitment to enhancing its outreach efforts while also planning a meaningful celebration of its fiftieth anniversary. The discussions set the stage for future actions, including further exploration of the commemorative coin and potential invitations to notable figures from the commission's past.
