While Trump said he “couldn't care less” if his reckless tariffs raise prices on working families, Lombardo said he thinks we need to “feel a little pain” from them.

Working families in Nevada can’t afford any more pain from the Lombardo-Trump economy. As Governor, I’ll prioritize lowering costs.

As a former public school teacher, I know from first-hand experience that students having access to quality meals makes all the difference.

As Governor, we’re going to guarantee school meals for public school students and put money back in parents’ pockets.

Under Joe Lombardo, homelessness in Nevada is at its highest peak since the Great Recession. There are Nevadans who are having to donate their blood in order to pay their rent. 

Nevadans deserve a Governor who is focused on making Nevada more affordable – and that’s what I’ll do as Governor.

Last year, under Joe Lombardo, Nevada lagged behind most of the nation in job growth. 

Now, while small businesses and working families suffer, Lombardo is embracing Trump’s reckless tariff policies that are doing further harm to Nevada’s economy.

As Attorney General, I’ve held big drug companies that are jacking up prices and poisoning our communities accountable. 

As Governor, I’m going to lower the cost of prescription drugs to the Medicare-negotiated price for all Nevadans.

As a single dad in college, Medicaid kept my son and me healthy – and as a State Senator, I worked with Democrats and Republicans to expand it to tens of thousands of Nevadans. 

Now at a time when so many are struggling to make ends meet in Joe Lombardo’s economy, Trump is ripping away health care.

Working families and small businesses are being slammed by Trump’s price-raising tariffs that Joe Lombardo thinks Nevadans should “feel a little pain” from.

As Governor, unlike Lombardo, I will put the needs of Nevada families over Trump’s agenda.

As Senate Minority Leader, I helped pass a bipartisan bill that created Allegiant Stadium.

Since then, from construction work to hospitality, we’ve seen thousands of families benefit from the good-paying jobs that project created.

One in four children in Nevada don’t know where their next meal is going to come from. Meanwhile Joe Lombardo vetoed a bill that would have guaranteed school meals and put money back in parents’ pockets.

As Governor, ensuring our kids are fed will be a top priority for me.

Not surprising considering this is the same Governor who said we should all be “excited” about Trump’s tax bill that gives tax breaks to billionaires while ripping health care away from tens of thousands of Nevadans.

Lombardo will always choose Trump’s agenda over Nevadans.

Thank you, Siena Progressive Club for having me last night.

The Lombardo-Trump economy is rigged against Nevadans trying their hardest to stay afloat.

As Governor, I will prioritize making life more affordable for working families.

Nevadans shouldn’t have to choose between paying rent and filling their prescription. But health care costs have risen faster here than anywhere else in the country.

As Governor, I’ll bring the costs of prescription drugs down to the Medicare-negotiated price for all Nevadans.

I’m not playing around. If corporations are illegally jacking up prices on hardworking Nevadans, I will hold them accountable.

At a time when Nevadans are having to donate blood in order to pay their rent, we must do everything we can to make Nevada more affordable.

If Congress doesn’t work together to save the ACA tax credits, Nevadans could see their premiums jump from $595 to $2,021 a month — a $1,425 increase for the same plan.

Health care costs have risen faster in Nevada than anywhere else, we need to get serious about keeping costs down for families.

Nevadans are struggling with rising costs, and Joe Lombardo’s embrace of Trump’s reckless policies are only making things worse.

As Governor, lowering costs — from housing to healthcare — will be my top priority.

Health care costs are becoming more unaffordable for so many Nevadans.

If Donald Trump can pass the largest permanent tax cut for billionaires in our nation’s history, surely he can work with Congress to save the ACA tax credits and prevent health care premiums from skyrocketing for Nevadans.

As I talk to Nevadans across our state, the same issue comes up over and over again: rising costs. Prices are rising and it’s becoming harder for working families in Nevada to make ends meet.

As Governor, I will prioritize lowering costs for Nevadans.

On Joe Lombardo’s watch, homelessness is at its highest peak since the Great Recession. Instead of fighting for working families, he’s vetoed legislation that would have lowered housing costs.

As Governor, my priority will be making Nevada more affordable.

Like the State of Nevada, under Joe Lombardo, the City of Las Vegas has one of the highest unemployment rates in the nation.

Lombardo said it himself, “the unemployment rate hasn’t gotten better.”

I hear it all the time: the cost of living in Nevada is too high for working families.

We have to make Nevada more affordable — driving down costs, protecting paychecks, and building an economy that works for everyone.
