Under the Lombardo-Trump economy, the cost of housing has exponentially increased. In Clark County, 15% of the homes are owned by corporations. Joe Lombardo vetoed the bill that would've stopped corporations from buying up our homes—all working Nevadans get with him as Governor is higher costs.

So much fun visiting Ironworkers Local 433! Proud of the work they're doing to build the Hard Rock Resort and other construction projects that bring good-paying jobs to Nevada. As Governor, I'll make sure that work keeps growing. Thanks for having me!

The Office of Governor does not belong to Joe Lombardo, it belongs to the people of Nevada. Lombardo would rather hide than answer Nevadans about why he hasn’t lowered costs. I’m ready to stand on a debate stage and lay out my vision for an affordable Nevada. I intend to do that on October 8th.

I have secured a landmark victory against Meta. This settlement has won Nevada up to $256 MILLION and will install new anti-screen time rules for kids.

As Attorney General, I secured over $1 billion from the drug companies that fueled the opioid epidemic, holding Big Pharma accountable for the devastation it caused Nevada families.

As Attorney General, I’ve always believed taking on serious crimes shouldn’t be a partisan issue. Protecting people and upholding the law takes priority over party politics and it will ALWAYS be a priority for me.

Filled up my tank in Reno and can’t believe these prices. This is what happens when your Governor Joe Lombardo is a human doormat for Trump's Iran war, spending your taxpayer dollars while gas prices soar. This ends when we vote him out in November.

I've accepted two debates against Joe Lombardo. I called for these in June and he STILL hasn't responded. No Show Joe has to answer for putting Trump's unhinged agenda over hardworking Nevadans.

This is a landmark victory for Nevada voters. Trump issued an executive order that would ban USPS from sending mail ballots. I filed a lawsuit against this unlawful rule and WON. As Governor, unlike Joe Lombardo, I will always fight to protect Nevadans’ constitutional rights.

Proud to be the 1st Dem candidate endorsed by the Retail Association in over 20 years! Nevada’s high costs caused by Trump’s tariffs, which Lombardo supports, has forced businesses to close. RAN knows I’ve been a champion for Nevada’s businesses & I’ll continue that fight as Governor.

The same motivation that inspired Aaron Ford to build a better life for his family is now inspiring him to help build a better life for all Nevadans.

25 years ago, America faced one of its greatest tragedies. On this day, we remember those who lost their lives and honor the first responders whose bravery inspired a nation. Being an American means coming together in our darkest moments and finding hope in hardship. We will never forget.

Nevada can't trust a governor who prioritizes Trump's billionaire friends over feeding hungry children, let alone one who lies about it.

I’m introducing legislation that would stop Nevadans from being forced to foot the bill. As Governor, my top priority will be lowering your energy costs and we’ll get it done by any means necessary – and that includes taking on greedy data centers and big utility companies.

Aaron D. Ford @aarondfordnv.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
Lombardo gave data centers over $240 MILLION of OUR tax dollars in 2023 and 2024 alone, nearly 2.5x what was given out just two years earlier. That money could have paid for 3,500 new teachers, 2,000 new affordable housing units, or school meals for ALL public school students.

Joe Lombardo has made too many out-of-touch comments that it’s hard to keep track of them all. Here’s a rundown on the worst of the worst.

All too often, a veto, a firing, or a favorable decision has been followed by a campaign check to Joe Lombardo from the special interest that benefitted. Here's what the public record shows about five of Lombardo's biggest donor relationships.

Joe Lombardo is being bankrolled by dark money billionaires and admits that he’ll go to any length to impress Trump and his billionaire friends, even if it means hurting Nevadans’ wallets.

Joe Lombardo handed data center companies $200 million of Nevadans' tax dollars — and never bothered to check if we got anything in return. Meanwhile, he's pocketed nearly $2 million in campaign cash from those same companies, the ones driving your costs through the roof.

Held a town hall with Nevadans to hear how rising utility bills are squeezing their budgets. My plan: block NV Energy’s demand charge hike, make data centers pay for their own power, and expand affordable clean energy. Nevadans come first, not greedy utilities and certainly not massive data centers.

Throughout his tenure as Governor, Joe Lombardo has dismissed and disrespected Nevadans’ concerns. It’s because of him that Nevadans are living through this Lombardo-Trump affordability crisis and as Governor, making things cost less will be my top priority.

Aaron D. Ford @aarondfordnv.bsky.social · 28/08/2026
As electricity bills rise, I’m holding data centers accountable while Joe Lombardo is “wholeheartedly in support” of them. Nevadans deserve a Governor who is focused on lowering costs — not padding data centers’ pockets.

Flock cameras raise serious concerns about our right to privacy and until we pass protections into law, I don’t support them. I’ve spent my time as AG protecting Nevadans from Wall Street, Big Pharma, and Big Tech corporations and as Governor, I’ll continue to put working Nevadans first.

Aaron D. Ford @aarondfordnv.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
Joe Lombardo said Nevadans need to "feel a little pain" from Trump's tariffs — I disagree. You deserve a governor whose priority is putting money back in your pockets, not one prioritizing taking care of their billionaire friends.

As a child, I grew up watching my parents struggle to make ends meet. Costs and affordability are not a talking point for me; they were a part of my story. That's why affordability is at the core of everything I'll fight for when I am your governor.

Joe Lombardo has taken $2 million from data center donors and in return has given them more than $200 million in tax breaks. When I’m Governor, we’re going to pause tax breaks until data centers prove their worth.

Lombardo’s handed data centers $200 million in tax breaks with zero accountability. That stops when we elect @aarondfordnv.bsky.social into office.

I’ve consistently held big corporations accountable throughout my career and data centers will be no different. As Governor, I’ll impose the strictest regulations on data centers in the country to protect Nevada and our communities.

Aaron D. Ford @aarondfordnv.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
Lombardo says he’s “wholeheartedly in support of data centers” - I’m going to be the Governor who is wholeheartedly supportive of Nevadans. NO tax breaks until data centers prove they've delivered, NO rising energy bills, REAL union jobs, & REAL accountability to the communities they build in.

Joe Lombardo says we need to take care of Trump’s billionaire friends. I say we need to take care of Nevada workers. Thank you so much to @nvaflcio.bsky.social for having me today. We need a Governor who will take on this affordability crisis— not one who says there’s “nothing he can do.”

The RGA just got caught hiding donors and paying fines to settle campaign finance violations in New York. That's the same group writing checks for Joe Lombardo. Dark money, dirty tactics — Lombardo's paying the price for who's funding him.

Nevadans are being squeezed under the Lombardo-Trump economy. If you work hard and play by the rules, you should be able to afford to live in Nevada. That’s why, on my first day as Governor, I’ll declare an affordability state of emergency to lower your costs.

The Trump Administration is using $10 million in federal funding as a bargaining chip to make us blindly hand over data on Nevadans. This is a blatant overreach, and I will never stand idly by as Nevadans' privacy is threatened.

The Lombardo-Trump economy is crushing working families, and too many Nevadans can’t afford to buy a home. I’m running for Governor to change that.

Rural Nevada is being crushed by the Lombardo-Trump affordability crisis. Families here are struggling to keep up, and they deserve more than lip service; I'm listening, and fixing this will be my priority from day one.

Everywhere I go, I hear the same thing from businesses, students, and working families: folks can't keep up with the costs. Under Joe Lombardo, unemployment is high and housing costs are at record highs. It's my number one priority as Governor to make life affordable again.

I know what it’s like to struggle and right now, too many Nevadans are facing that same pain in this Lombardo-Trump economy. That’s why, as governor, on day one I’ll declare this affordability crisis a state of emergency and immediately begin lowering your costs.

As a father and former public school teacher, I understand this time can be expensive for parents. That’s why as governor, I’ll sign a bill to give GUARANTEED school meals to all public school children.

🚨As costs skyrocket, Joe Lombardo’s top priority is taking care of Trump’s “billionaires friends” who are bankrolling his campaign and jacking up Nevadans’ prices. As Governor, my top priority will be taking care of working Nevadans.

Trump is in Vegas to campaign for Joe Lombardo and gaslight voters about the reality of the Lombardo-Trump economy raising costs on Nevadans. While Lombardo chooses to be a human doormat for Trump, I’ll keep fighting to lower costs and put money back in Nevadans’ pockets.

When corporations collude to raise drug prices, Nevadans pay for it. That’s why I joined a 43-state coalition to secure a $400 million settlement with Sandoz Inc. over price-fixing allegations that drove up costs for prescription medications.

Had to stop by Black Cow Coffee House in Pahrump to get myself a white mocha latte. Talked to some folks about how the Lombardo-Trump economy is increasing their everyday costs and making healthcare unaffordable. I even got to listen to an original song from an up and coming star guitarist!
