Carson City, NV – Today, Governor-elect Aaron Ford announced a bipartisan group of co-chairs, vice chairs, and honorary chairs for his transition advisory committee. Ford will also be releasing an Affordable Nevada Transition Advisory Committee with workers, industry experts, business and community leaders who will inform the administration on ways to immediately begin lowering the costs of housing, health care, energy, child care, and labor, and inform the administration on economic development and education. This list of steering committees is subject to grow.
“Nevadans sent a clear message this election: They want a state that works for them and a cost of living they can actually afford,” said Governor-elect Aaron Ford. “This team reflects Nevada and they’re ready to get to work. They come from bipartisan backgrounds and from every part of our state, from Reno to Las Vegas to our rural communities. They bring a wide range of experience in public service, and they share the same belief: The government should make life easier and more affordable for the people it serves. Together, we’re going to build a Nevada where every family can afford to stay and every family can get ahead. We’ll move Nevada forward.”
