Nevada State Republicans call for complete review regarding alleged connections to Proud Boys

The Senate Republican Caucus released the following statement regarding allegations of connections between the Nevada Republican Party and members of the organization known as "Proud Boys."

Racism, intimidation, and violence have no place in the Nevada Republican Party.

News reports that state party leaders may have formed a relationship with members of the organization known as the Proud Boys to sway the censure vote of a public official is profoundly concerning.

Senate Republicans call for a complete review of the April 10, 2021 Nevada Republican Party State Central Committee meeting credentialing process and a full audit of the vote that resulted in the censure of Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske.

Senate Republicans reaffirm their support of the Secretary of State's comprehensive review of alleged election violations submitted by the Nevada Republican Party.

If there is a determination that any member or employee of the Nevada Republican Party conspired with these individuals or had knowledge of any wrongdoing in the party vote, Senate Republicans call for their immediate removal and resignation.
