Ford Campaign Statement on Joe Lombardo Launching Re-Election Campaign
Attorney General Aaron Ford released the following statement on Joe Lombardo launching his re-election campaign:
“Joe Lombardo has failed to lower costs and make life more affordable for hardworking Nevada families. On his watch, housing costs are at record highs, Nevada has had one of the highest unemployment rates in the nation for more than a year, we’ve lagged behind the rest of the nation in job growth, and our schools remain underfunded and overcrowded. Donald Trump’s price-raising policies are stifling tourism, curtailing consumer spending, and ripping Medicaid and SNAP benefits away from tens of thousands of Nevadans to pay for billionaire tax breaks; yet Lombardo continues to sell out to Trump time and again at the direct expense of Nevadans.
“As Governor, I will put Nevadans first: expanding economic opportunity and creating good-paying jobs, lowering costs, guaranteeing school meals, and taking on predatory corporations pricing Nevadans out of their homes. That’s the future Nevadans deserve, and that’s how we move our state forward – together.”
