An investigation by a review panel for the Nevada Commission on Ethics has concluded that there is credible evidence that Nevada Lieutenant Governor Stavros Anthony potentially violated ethics laws.
In a document released on August 20, the panel finds that there is sufficient cause to refer the complaint to the entire Commission, but also says the violations could be addressed through corrective action without referring the matter to the Commission.
A deferral agreement would require Anthony to agree to conditions.
Those conditions include complying with ethics law through the day after the 2026 November election or one year from the agreement, whichever comes first, attending ethics training, ensuring no official social media accounts or other platforms are used to promote private or campaign accounts, adopting a social media policy for the Office of the Lieutenant Governor that expressly prohibits use of government accounts to promote political campaigns; and certifying in writing that Anthony has read and understands the Improper Benefits chapter of the Ethics Manual within 30 days of the agreement being approved.
