Economy As someone who grew up in a working-class family, I know the immense challenges they face in the best of times. Today, many households are struggling to just stay afloat. I will fight to lower costs and increase job opportunities for working class families, including opportunities for entrepreneurship to drive our economy forward and create opportunities for intergenerational wealth building. Housing Families in our state shouldn’t be struggling to rent or buy homes, but we’re seeing that across Nevada because of market manipulation by out-of-state corporations buying up single family homes. We need to double down on our investment in housing solutions and get innovative in our approach to make the American Dream of owning your own home attainable again. Education For decades, our education system has struggled with insufficient funding, resulting in Nevada’s K-12 education being among the lowest-ranked in the country. As a former CCSD student and highly-motivated father of three young kids, I will fight to generate tax-free revenue to fund our schools properly, ensure every student has access to breakfast and lunch, improve our teacher recruitment and retention efforts, and get innovative in our approach to educating our students. Economy When bad times hit, they hit us hardest because of our heavy reliance on tourism. We need to advance our small business ecosystem and attract new businesses and investors to Nevada, especially in the technology sector, to develop a stronger, diversified, durable economy built for the needs of the future.
