How you would approach disagreements between the Governor and Legislature when working to advance legislation and a state budget?
I believe effective leadership means bringing people together, even during disagreements. As Lieutenant Governor, I would focus on communication, transparency, and practical solutions that put Nevadans first instead of partisan politics. When conflicts arise between the Governor and Legislature, I would work to find common ground on priorities like strengthening Nevada’s economy, supporting small businesses, improving education, and expanding access to healthcare. On the state budget, I support responsible fiscal management while making strategic investments that benefit working families and long-term economic growth. My approach would always be collaborative, solutions-focused, and focused on delivering results for all of Nevada.
What strategies would you support to ensure all Nevadans, including immigrants, have access to workforce opportunities?
I support expanding workforce opportunities for all Nevadans by improving access to job training, apprenticeships, career education, and small business resources. Nevada’s workforce system should work for everyone, including immigrants, rural communities, veterans, and working families. I believe in stronger partnerships between schools, unions, community colleges, and local businesses to create pathways into high-demand careers. I also support reducing barriers by expanding access to childcare, transportation, English-language support, and career navigation services so more Nevadans can successfully enter and remain in the workforce.
What steps do you see as necessary to encourage state lawmakers to work together?
I believe Nevada works best when leaders focus on solving problems instead of political division. Encouraging lawmakers to work together starts with open communication, transparency, and listening to communities across the state. I would work to build relationships with legislators from both parties and focus on common-ground issues like economic development, healthcare, education, and workforce growth. Respectful collaboration, data-driven decisions, and keeping the focus on everyday Nevadans are essential to moving Nevada forward together.
What steps would you take to build public trust in state government?
Building public trust starts with transparency, accountability, and accessibility. Nevadans deserve leaders who communicate honestly, explain decisions clearly, and remain accessible to the communities they serve. I support stronger ethics standards, open government practices, and making state resources and information easier for the public to access. I also believe trust is built by showing up consistently, listening to concerns from both urban and rural communities, and focusing on practical solutions that improve people’s daily lives rather than partisan politics.
