Campaign themes

2016

Hicks' campaign website highlighted the following issues:

  • Douglas County needs better funding for education. We also need to improve school curriculum to balance vocational, critical thinking, and real-life skills with test-preparation.
  • We need to improve transportation, both from an infrastructure (roads, bridges, and public works) standpoint as well as transportation options where the RTA underserves some of our residents.
  • We need to improve availability of maintenance-free housing options, particularly for persons 55 or older, that are not cost-prohibitive.
  • We need to ensure both a living wage (including wage reviews for state employees) and work/life balance.
  • We need to ensure pay equity for comparably-skilled men and women.
  • We need to protect women’s reproductive rights and improve access to women’s health care.
  • We need to implement and enforce common-sense gun regulations.
  • We must be aggressive about reliance on renewable energy sources, and end fracking.
  • We must slice through the red tape and create a more clear and efficient path to citizenship.[1]
—Tim Hicks[2]
