Guardianship issues have become a major
concern and talking piece recently after it was discovered that non-Nevada
residents were barred from being named guardians for individuals determined
unable to physically and mentally care for their personal
well-being.
On March 13,
2015, Senate Bill 262 was placed on the
official legislative docket to be reviewed by the Committee on Judiciary to
replace current Nevada law that has been in effect for over 30
years.
Here is the actual senate
bill:
When we were made aware of this
successful effort, we sent our congratulations to Rana...and she in turn
responded as
follows:
Rana Goodman of Anthem Today
"I'm very proud. It was so cool
yesterday. Senator Harris asked me if I would like to sit with her on the Senate
floor when she introduced the bill. I said I'd love to. At the end of the
session they then had the three guests, two other women and
me, stand.
The senators who had invited us, stood and formally
introduced us to the entire senate telling a little about us.
Senator Harris said I had doggedly
pushed the guardianship issue and would not give up until it became a bill..
I thought I'd bust.. It was a great
moment and Friday the 13th too."
Well Rana, we too think it's pretty
"cool" too....
...that legislators across the state,
and so many individuals in our community...have finally recognized you for the
good person you have always been, and given you the kudos you have deserved for
years.
With this bill and the accolades you
received from the Nevada Senate for your dedication to public assistance of
those in need....
We congratulate you, not just for your
persistence in pursuing the passage of this bill....
...but forever dispelling any
possibility as to the validity of untrue derogatory rhetoric previously
written that made attempts to taint your integrity in any
way.
We wish you our best in your continued
pursuit to make this effort a permanent part of Nevada
law.
