VOTE TAHOE BLUE

North Tahoe Dems Gathering with 
Aaron Ford, NV Attorney General & Primary Candidate for Governor
Thurs, Feb 12 - 6 pm

Join North Tahoe Democrats for a Zoom discussion with Aaron Ford, Nevada Attorney General and Candidate for the Democratic Gubernatorial nomination. Bring your questions for Aaron and learn about his vision for governing Nevada.

Washoe County Commissioner, Alexis Hill, will also provide an update on matters of local interest.

Our February meeting begins with a half hour social at 5:30 with official start at 6:00. In person attendance is at the Incline Village Library located at 845 Alder Ave.

Nevada Attorney General and Gubernatorial candidate Aaron Ford knows what it means to fight for a better life, because he’s lived it. Born into a working-class family, public education gave him a path forward earning his law degree and a PhD in education. From being a public school teacher, he clerked for two Federal judges, rose to law firm partner in Las Vegas, ran successfully for the Nevada State Senate, served as Nevada’s Senate Majority Leader, and in 2019, became Nevada's Attorney General. 

As Attorney General, Aaron has taken on powerful interests --- and won --- recovering more than $1 billion from Big Pharma to fight the opioid crisis, cracking down on housing speculators and rent-gouging scams, and returning millions to Nevadans through consumer protection cases. He has sued insurance companies trying to deny coverage and has prioritized lowering costs for Nevadans — going after corporate landlords who are illegally jacking up prices and pricing out families. He has also expanded reproductive freedoms, defended public education, and delivered bipartisan wins on public safety. Now, Aaron is running for Governor to build a Nevada where every family, no matter their zip code or background, has the chance not just to get by, but to get ahead.

Aaron lives in Las Vegas with his wife Berna, an attorney, and their three sons.
