Campaign themes

2012

Joe's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]

FISCAL INTEGRITY

I am an experienced businessman, with a proven track record of successfully founding and managing profitable companies in the high-tech industry. I have returned struggling companies to profitability. My ability to identify potential revenue streams and control costs will help Nevada’s economy grow and flourish responsibly.
JOBS
As a legal aid attorney in Nevada, I have been at the forefront of the struggle to save Nevada homes from foreclosure. I have seen firsthand how the economic crisis affects hard-working Nevadans, and I understand putting Nevadans back to work is critical to our state’s recovery.
A NEW PERSPECTIVE

Nevada needs leaders with fresh and innovative ideas to create jobs and grow our state. I have crucial experience of working with legislators as an advocate for struggling Nevadans and I commit to continue to fight for your interests. I look forward to serving as your Assemblyman and working towards a solution for our common concerns.
