BACKGROUND
Joey Paulos (SD-08)
When elected to the State Senate, Joey Paulos will advance policies that reduce harmful regulations that limit access to health care and drive up costs. He will advance personal options to health care—as opposed to government-run options—to give consumers more control of their health needs. Paulos will also be an advocate for taxpayers, working to increase transparency in the budget process and expanding educational opportunities, so parents have a wider range of educational options that meet their children’s learning needs.
Rhonda Knightly (AD-29)
Rhonda Knightly has a long career as an accountant, and she will use her experience to promote fiscally responsible state budgets that protect the taxpayers’ interests. She also understands the need to promote a business-friendly economic environment that creates new opportunities and a strong economy. Aside from being a partner on spending, taxation, and the economy, Knightly supports reforming the criminal justice system so that rehabilitated incarcerated individuals who pose no public threat can return to their families and communities as productive citizens.
Tiffany Jones (AD-35)
When elected to the state legislature in November, Tiffany Jones will be a strong voice for Nevada parents seeking expanded education opportunities that meet their children’s individual learning needs. Jones has voiced support for expanding education freedom through a variety of options for all Nevadans. Jones also wants to expand options to health care that empower patients and doctors and get government out of the way.
Tina Brown (SD-09)
A Las Vegas native and community leader, Tina Brown understands how important education is to the future of our state and to the lives of future generations that will lead and grow our state in the future. Once in office, Brown will support a range of empowerment education reforms such as education savings accounts that put more control in the hands of parents. Brown also understands the harm burdensome and intrusive government regulations can impose on our economy. She will work to decrease regulatory burdens, such as those imposed on Nevada food truck operators, and expand residential building opportunities for contractors.
