Economic Forum
The Economic Forum was created by the Legislature during the 1993 Legislative Session (NRS 353.226-229). The Economic Forum is responsible for providing forecasts of the
state's General Fund revenues for each biennium budget period. By statute, the Economic Forum is required to provide forecasts on or before December 3 of even-numbered years
and on or before May 1 of odd-numbered years. The December 3 estimates are used by the Governor in preparing budget recommendations presented to the Legislature in January of
odd-numbered years. The May 1 forecast is the final official revenue estimate that is used by the Legislature in balancing General Fund appropriations with projected General
Fund revenues for each biennial budget period.
Assembly Bill 332, approved during the 2011 Legislative Session, requires the Economic Forum to meet on or before June 10 of each even-numbered year, and December 10 of each
odd-numbered year. At each of these meetings, the Economic Forum receives an update on the status of actual State General Fund revenue collections compared to the Economic
Forum's most recent forecast. The provisions of A.B. 332 are not intended to authorize the Economic Forum to make additional forecasts of State General Fund revenue at these
meetings. The Economic Forum also considers information on current economic indicators, such as employment, unemployment, personal income and any other indicators deemed
appropriate by the Economic Forum. The Chair of the Economic Forum is required to provide a report of each of these two additional meetings to the Interim Finance Committee and
the information presented to Interim Finance Committee must be made available on the website of the Legislature.

The Economic Forum consists of five appointed members who cannot be employees of state government, including publicly supported institutions of higher education. The Governor appoints all five members to the Economic Forum, with the Senate Majority Leader and the Speaker of the Assembly each nominating one member for appointment. Each member appointed to the Economic Forum serves a two-year term.
