Campaign themes
2014
Harrison's campaign website highlighted the following platform:[1]
- Excerpt: "Our number-one priority is to BRING BACK NEVADA JOBS!!!! First, we must restore confidence in our educational system so that businesses intending to remain or relocate in Nevada, will have full confidence that their children & their employees will receive quality education & job training in our schools, community colleges, universities & vocational/technical facilities."
- Excerpt: "Next, that quality education will draw more businesses & jobs to Nevada in order to produce diverse goods & services related to renewable energy, manufacturing, agriculture, & outdoor recreation. Lower renewable energy prices will then reduce operating costs in mining, manufacturing, transportation & retail sales, allowing many businesses to avoid lay-offs during "bust" cycles."
- Excerpt: "Finally, shrinking the Federal administration of public lands will help improve the availability of water & forage on our range lands to assure that reasonable numbers of livestock, wildlife, feral horses & farms prosper, not perish. Did you know that for every job in agriculture, 1.6 jobs are created in surrounding communities?"
