Nevada State Assembly District 18
The Nevada State Assembly is the lower chamber of the state Legislature and works alongside the Senate to draft, debate, and enact state laws. All 42 Assembly seats are up for election in 2026, and the Assembly plays a central role in shaping policy on schools, healthcare, housing, jobs, public safety, and state budgeting. Because Assembly members represent local districts and serve two-year terms, these races allow voters to hold lawmakers closely accountable and ensure that policy priorities reflect the needs and values of their communities. These elections matter for democratic representation and for how the state resolves the biggest challenges facing Nevadans.

Our Country's foundation is based on the law, and in that system, you must apply the law equally for it to have integrity. Immigration is the legal jurisdiction of the federal government, therefore, we must comply with the federal government's policies on immigration. If my State had a serious objection to the actions of the federal government, I would encourage our two Senators, four House Representatives and Governor to express this sentiment to the Federal Government. They can (and should) address these types of issues through Congress. I would not support State actions that directly oppose the federal government's policies because that is insurrection, and is damaging to the integrity of our Country's legal foundation.
Redistricting should be done by independent redistricting commissions and should be done at agreed upon intervals. Historically, redistricting has been done every ten years because the census is done every ten years, and it is the only common data sheet that we can redistrict from. I believe the ten year cycle is a great system and should be adhered to. But there is no way to enforce it federally, because the Constitution calls for the States to run their own election systems. As to the question of redistricting through discrimination, that should be considered a Civil Rights violation. Ultimately, the wild redistricting problem could be deterred by prosecuting a discriminating redistricting body for a civil rights violation.
The School District needs reorganizing and a novel approach to helping our kids do better. We have a massive exodus from the Public School into Charter Schools. Both will have higher overheads and struggle to provide education at an effective cost. I propose the State lease out classroom space to charter schools, and make the most of the infrastructure overhead costs. Next, I believe that kids are struggling due to a break down in the family unit and our communities. My proposal is to reintegrate the family and community into the school system. Instead of hiring teaching assistants, I would create a state program where parents can come in for a day of school with their kid and get paid. This would go a long way to helping kids flourish.
