In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“Too many families are feeling the pressure of rising costs, too many students need greater opportunities to succeed, and too many communities are waiting for the next chapter of growth and investment.”
“I am honored by the confidence Nevadans have placed in me, and I will continue working every day on behalf of every Nevadan — whether they voted for me or not. Together, we will build on our progress, finish the job, and make Nevada the best place in America to live, work, and raise a family.”
“Let's decide Nevada's future together.”
