Issues

Economy

Life is no longer affordable in Nevada. Everything from gas to groceries costs more. As your Assemblywoman, I will focus on lowering taxes, strengthening and diversifying economic development, and cutting the red tape small business owners face. I will work to lower the cost of everyday items like food and gas by repealing the laws passed in recent sessions that made everything so much more expensive. I will support affordable housing initiatives and will fight against additional taxes on gas, as well as efforts to impose a state income tax. If we apply common sense practices and financial insight to state law and budgeting decisions, we can avoid becoming California 2.0.
 

Education

One of the most pressing reasons I am running for Assembly 12 is to safeguard future generations. Kids today don’t have the same opportunities I had as a child. I support teachers and kids. I want stronger, better schools which means we must hold school boards and districts accountable. We need programs like Read by 3 and reinstatement of the Opportunity Scholarships. I support school choice, particularly in underperforming areas, and programs to attract more teachers to our schools. Incentives can be created to bring the very best to the Silver State, while giving more resources to our existing teachers. We can fix the education system in Nevada with common sense policies and oversight to ensure accountability.
 

Public Safety

If we don’t have safe communities, we don’t have anything. Sadly, our legislature has passed several laws over the years that protect criminals over victims and laws that make crimes easier to commit with little to no penalties. As your Assemblywoman, I intend to repeal pro-criminal policies and will prioritize the rights of victims. I will also work to stop the flow of illegal drugs into Nevada to combat the growing Fentanyl problem. I am clearly different from the career politicians in Carson City who have tried repeatedly to legalize drugs that will place Nevada residents at further risk. I will back our police and first responders and will ensure common sense is applied to any legislation that impacts public safety.
