In 1937, a law was enacted to require weekly health checks of all prostitutes. In 1942, President <a href="/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt" title="Franklin D. Roosevelt">Franklin D. Roosevelt</a> issued an order to suppress prostitution near military bases—affecting the <a href="/wiki/Red-light_district" title="Red-light district">red-light districts</a> of <a href="/wiki/Reno,_Nevada" title="Reno, Nevada">Reno</a> and <a href="/wiki/Las_Vegas" title="Las Vegas">Las Vegas</a>. When this order was lifted in 1948, Reno officials tried to shut down a brothel as a public nuisance; this action was upheld by the <a href="/wiki/Nevada_Supreme_Court" class="mw-redirect" title="Nevada Supreme Court">Nevada Supreme Court</a> in 1949. In 1951, both Reno and Las Vegas had closed their red-light districts as public nuisances, but brothels continued to exist throughout the state.<sup id="cite_ref-Alexa_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Alexa-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1971, <a href="/wiki/Joe_Conforte" class="mw-redirect" title="Joe Conforte">Joe Conforte</a>, owner of a brothel called <a href="/wiki/Mustang_Ranch" title="Mustang Ranch">Mustang Ranch</a>, near <a href="/wiki/Reno,_Nevada" title="Reno, Nevada">Reno</a>, convinced county officials to enact an ordinance which would provide for the licensing of brothels and prostitutes, thus avoiding the threat of being closed down as a public nuisance.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Officials in Las Vegas, afraid that Conforte would use the same technique to open a brothel nearby, convinced the legislature, in 1971, to enact legislation prohibiting the legalization of prostitution in counties with a population above a certain threshold, tailored to apply only to <a href="/wiki/Clark_County,_Nevada" title="Clark County, Nevada">Clark County</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-NRS244_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NRS244-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1977, county officials in <a href="/wiki/Nye_County,_Nevada" title="Nye County, Nevada">Nye County</a> tried to shut down Walter Plankinton's <a href="/wiki/Chicken_Ranch_(Nevada)" title="Chicken Ranch (Nevada)">Chicken Ranch</a> as a public nuisance; brothels did not have to be licensed in that county at the time, and several others were operating. Plankinton filed suit, claiming that the 1971 state law had implicitly removed the assumption that brothels are public nuisances <i>per se</i>. The <a href="/wiki/Nevada_Supreme_Court" class="mw-redirect" title="Nevada Supreme Court">Nevada Supreme Court</a> agreed with this interpretation in 1978,<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and so the Chicken Ranch was allowed to operate. In another case, brothel owners in <a href="/wiki/Lincoln_County,_Nevada" title="Lincoln County, Nevada">Lincoln County</a> protested when the county outlawed prostitution in 1978, having issued licenses for seven years. The Nevada Supreme Court ruled, however, that the county had the right to do so.<sup id="cite_ref-Kuban_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Kuban-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A state law prohibiting the advertising of brothels in counties which have outlawed prostitution was enacted in 1979.

As almost three-quarters of the population of Nevada lives in a single county (Clark County, where prostitution is illegal), county control over local matters is a hot-button issue. Legislators from the northern counties will often reflexively oppose what is seen as "meddling" from the majority in the south, and the legislators from the south have been too divided on the issue to push through a state-wide ban. </p><p>Since 2003, Las Vegas mayor <a href="/wiki/Oscar_Goodman" title="Oscar Goodman">Oscar Goodman</a> has repeatedly stated that he favors legalization of prostitution in the city, perhaps turning East Fremont Street into a <i>little Amsterdam</i>. Goodman said there are pragmatic reasons to back legalized prostitution. Those include the acknowledgement that illegal prostitution is occurring and that brothels could provide safer, regulated and revenue-generating sex, he said.<sup id="cite_ref-79" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-79"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>79<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-80" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-80"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>80<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The brothel owners' organization, supported by Democratic State Senator <a href="/wiki/Bob_Coffin" title="Bob Coffin">Bob Coffin</a>, has been pushing for taxation of the brothels, to increase the industry's legitimacy.
