Elaine Marzola (D)
I’m a small business owner and the past two years have been a rollercoaster. It is why I was proud to support legislation that helped small business owners recover from the pandemic by providing over $100 Million dollars in grants. Small business are key to a strong, vibrant economy, and I am committed to helping small business owners throughout Nevada.
The most reliable path to success in this country is through education. It was the key to my success and it’s an obligation the public owes to all children in this state - it’s an investment with a guaranteed return. I am committed to increasing accountability in our school district and will increase transparency to ensure our education dollars are spent in the class room and not bureaucracy. I support increased funding for our schools and finding solutions to hire and retain the best teachers.

As a physician for over 20 years, this is my foremost concern for both our state and nation.
I understand the shortcomings of our current healthcare system which continues to disenfranchise people from effectively managing their own health outcomes. We must pivot away from our inherently flawed system, and transition from “sick-care” to true “healthcare”.
Our focus should be on prevention rather than treatment while encouraging people to take responsibility for their own health.
