Assemblyman Aizley was first elected in 2008. In 2009, he served on the Government Affairs Committee; the Taxation Committee and Natural Resources, Agriculture and Mining Committee and now also serves on three interim committees: Public Lands, Governance and Oversight of K-12 Public Education, and  (the non-legislative committee) Education Committee of the States.

Assemblyman Aizley represents AD 41, a sprawling district in the southeastern section of Clark County that includes McCarran Airport and the UNLV.

Recently retired from UNLV and now Professor Emeritus of Mathematical Sciences, Assemblyman Aizley considers improving education in Nevada, K-12 and higher education—a top priority.

A little more about Assemblyman Aizley:

Assemblyman Aizley grew up in Boston, graduated from Harvard University in 1957 and definitely prefers the Nevada desert to the cold and bustle of the northeast. In fact, he often says that he can’t even enjoy the views in New England because “all those trees are in the way.”

He came to Las Vegas (and to UNLV) in 1968 from Arizona and has degrees from both University of Arizona (MS 1959) and Arizona State (PhD 1969). Assemblyman Aizley is proud to say that he has been in all 50 states and roughly 34 foreign countries.

Today, Aizley and his wife Sari have five grown children (including step-children), ten grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. His hobbies include foreign travel, hiking, cooking, movies and live theatre.
