Campaign themes
2016
England's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]
Taxes
- Excerpt: "In order for Nevada’s economy to once again thrive, we need to untie the hands of the private sector. Tax hikes are not the answer to mismanagement."
Education
- Excerpt: "There is no politician or administrator that knows your child’s needs better than you, the parent. When it comes to funding education, we must rely on parental oversight and free market principles to ensure our children receive the best education possible."
Second Amendment
- Excerpt: "There is no grey area, and I have no patience for government intrusion into this most basic of rights. I have been a sniper, weapons instructor, competition shooter, hunter, and yet gun rights became ever more important the day I became a father."
Health Care
- Excerpt: "What we need is a medical provider in the law making process who understands how the Affordable Care Act impacts patients. We need to be proactive in restoring the rights of Nevadans to choose the medical care that is right for them."
