Amazing the world’s 5th largest economy (California) increased its GDP (81% up) and cut its GHG emissions (21% cut) since 2000, BUT not a single major news outlet covered the story? Obviously the fossil fuel industry and its sycophants don’t want the world to know.

The "Lombardo-Trump" gang is lying to Americans and Nevadans. Thanks for standing up to them AG Ford!
From Carson City to Mesquite, Nevadans told me the same thing: the cost of living is out of control. Housing. Groceries. Health care. Working families are stretched to the breaking point.

As Governor, lowering costs will be my top priority – because no family should be one bill away from a crisis.

That means rooftop solar too!
At a time when solar and wind are the cheapest forms of new energy in the world, Trump wants to open a BILLION acres of US water to oil drilling.

Why? To line the pockets of his fossil fuel billionaire friends.

The rest of the world moves forward, we get left behind.
Breaking News: President Trump plans to open 1.3 billion acres of U.S. waters to drilling. It is one of Trump’s most significant steps yet to increase the production of fossil fuels, as dozens of countries have been calling for a phaseout of oil, gas and coal.

Ford fights for Nevadans. Lombardo fights for Wall Street billionaires.
Joe Lombardo vetoed and blocked bills to limit Wall Street firms from coming into Nevada and pricing working families out of their neighborhoods — then refused to include it in his special session proclamation.

I am demanding that he support the legislature’s bipartisan effort to do so.
November 20, 2025 at 9:39 PM
Ford will fight for Nevadans. Lombardo will not.
Nevadans pay more for groceries than residents of most other states and Trump’s tariffs have made it worse.

Joe Lombardo doesn’t care. He’s thinks Nevadans should “feel a little pain” from Trump’s tariffs.

Nevadans deserve a Governor who fights for their budgets, not Trump’s ego.
