No words can express our sadness as we say goodbye to Sean Higgins. Sean is not only father to Connor, Porter Group member, but also a close personal friend to all of us at Porter Group. We will truly miss his loyal friendship, his unleashed passion for life, and his generous heart. No doubt Sean is already working the room in heaven and lobbying the angels. Sending our thoughts, prayers, and love to Lynn, Connor, Samantha, and the entire family.

In light of the Coronavirus crisis, distance learning has become vital to the students of Clark County. We're happy to announce we've helped narrow the digital divide with A Distance Learning Task Force.
The task force, formed by our own Jon Porter at the request of Superintendent Jara and Mayor Debra March, has now raised $587,500 on behalf of the Clark County School District Technology Fund to provide Chromebooks and other approved notebooks computers to students who previously did not have access to the technology required to attend school virtually.
Local companies are stepping up to help CCSD students working from home. The Distance Learning Task Force has raised around $600,000 to purchase Chromebooks for families who can’t afford them…
Did you know you can customize your meeting background on Zoom? Eric Bonnici uses his to rep the Nevada Broadcasters Association.
Comment if you want to learn how!
Cameron’s not too worried about getting cabin fever while working from home, thanks to his porch swing and DC’s lovely spring weather!
Anna Leieritz is working from home with three children (ages 3 and under!), a goldendoodle, and a husband who isn’t used working from home. Anna has never been more thankful for the “mute” button and usually has an infant in her lap while she takes calls.
Anna, Porter Group’s newest hire, comes to us with over a decade of Capitol Hill experience including as a Legislative Director and staff for 2 different House committees. Anna has a JD, an LL.M. in Law and Government, and a Masters of Public Administration.
Is your #WFH week going well?
The Porter Group team is still at work from their homes across America. We've traded the click of shoes on the Capitol's marble floor to the click of keyboards but the work remains top tier.
Steph Walker is in her apartment in Virginia where she she has no pets and no children so things stay pretty quiet except the sound of conference calls. She has become a huge fan of Zoom (the virtual meeting app) which she uses for all her client meetings as well as virtual meet-ups with her friends, family and DAR chapter.
How is work from home going for you?
We were honored to host the Nevada League of Cities and Municipalities yesterday in DC! The Nevada Embassy is always happy to host any Nevadans that find themselves far from home.
