NV AB477

Requires the Director of the Department of Corrections to maintain electronic records for each offender including their last known residential address before imprisonment, whether they are 18 or older, and their race or ethnicity (including a separate Hispanic/Latino category)

Mandates the Department of Corrections provide inmate data to the State Demographer between April 1 and July 1 of each decennial census year, including unique identifiers, facility addresses, and pre-incarceration residential addresses

Requires the State Demographer to revise population counts within 30 days of receiving federal redistricting data to count inmates in their pre-incarceration residential block, block group, and census tract rather than at the prison location

Inmates with unknown last addresses or addresses outside Nevada must not be counted at the prison location and instead be counted as residents of a state unit not tied to any specific geographic area

Effective dates are staggered: Sections 2 and 3 take effect July 1, 2025; Section 1 takes effect January 1, 2026; the Department must collect address data for offenders releasing after July 1, 2030 before January 1, 2026
