Campaign themes
2014
Little's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]
Is it your health?
- Excerpt: "Your current Assemblyman voted for the diasterous [sic] Silver State Health Exchange. Because of this mismanaged program, many people lost their insurance despite trying desperately to sign up. Other have had to endure rate increases that have left them with barely enough to survive"
- Excerpt: "You need an Assemblyman who will work to either improve the Silver State Health Exchange or get rid of it. As a former Assemblyman, I have the experience that is needed."
Is it the children's education?
- Excerpt: "Over 50% of the education budget is spent on administration. That is waste. We need to cut the administartion [sic] expense and put the money where it belongs. We need to put it in the classroom."
Do you want more available jobs with a livable wage?
- Excerpt: "Jobs can be created and the economy improved if Nevada would get its land back from the Federal Government, regulations and restrictions on business were reduced, and if business taxes were more stable."
