Lisa Song Sutton completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2019. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Sutton's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
Lisa started her first business, Sin City Cupcakes, out of her home kitchen over 7 years ago, and today it is an iconic Las Vegas treat that delights tens of thousands of locals and visitors each year. Lisa is also co-founder of Ship Las Vegas, Elite Homes - Christie's International Real Estate, and Liquid & Lace swimwear.
In addition to her work as an entrepreneur, Lisa is an advocate for women, serving on the boards of local non-profits, encouraging representation for everyone. She has shared her message of empowerment and action with audiences from the TEDx stage to local schools, encouraging people, especially women, to take a seat at the table and make their voices heard.
Lisa's father is a U.S. Air Force veteran and her mother is a Korean-American immigrant. She is a strong supporter of our local veterans, active military and their families. This led her to open Ship Las Vegas, a mailbox and shipping store, near Nellis Air Force Base in North Las Vegas, where she saw firsthand the need for services.
Lisa knows what it means to work hard; she worked multiple part-time jobs in real estate and the modeling industry throughout college and law school and was the first Miss Nevada of Asian descent. During her campaign and year of service, she kept her promise to make the largest impact in the community that she could and conducted nearly 500 appearances in 18 months, volunteering in hospitals, reading in schools, and helping connect Nevadans to non-profit organizations that could improve their quality of life.- I support the tax cuts, but we must curtail spending. The current budget is harmful to the American people. We cannot keep mortgaging our future and continue to raise the debt ceiling. I will not support increased taxation to aid a bloated government budget.
- As the daughter of a veteran of the Vietnam War, I see the issues first-hand. The men and women who have served our country deserve our appreciation and support. They should be treated with dignity and given resources to succeed.
- Our nation shares a great love of sporting heritage. In addition, personal and home protection, especially for women, is incredibly important. A firearm is one of the most efficient ways to equalize a life-threatening situation. More restrictive gun laws will have little effect on crime because by nature, criminals do not follow the law. I support our right to bear arms, and advocate firearm knowledge and safety training.
