State statements

AbortionNo. 1/8

Nevada should add its protection for abortion through 24 weeks to the state constitution.

Background

Nevada law already allows abortion through 24 weeks. A November 2026 ballot question would place that right in the state constitution.

Aaron Ford Agree

As governor, I'm going to ensure that Nevada itself remains a firewall, not just in name, but in practice. So that means protecting abortion access, safeguarding IVF, keeping politicians out of private medical decisions.

Democracy and electionsNo. 2/8

Nevada should require voters to show photo ID when voting in person.

This attorney general will not abide by an unconstitutional act like voter ID here in this state.

HousingNo. 3/8

Nevada should limit how many single-family homes corporations can buy.

Background

Nevada currently places no limit on how many single-family homes a company can own. This would cap large corporate purchases.

Aaron Ford Agree

As Governor, Ford will put Nevadan families ahead of Wall Street profits... He will limit the number of homes corporate investors can buy each year and increase transparency around corporate ownership by creating a corporate landlord registry.

Energy and climateNo. 4/8

Nevada should require new data centers to supply their own electricity.

Background

Data centers in Nevada now buy most of their power from the utility grid. This would require new ones to build or buy their own power sources.

Aaron Ford Agree

When I'm governor they're going to have to bring their own clean energy and bring their own water.

Public safetyNo. 7/8

Nevada should keep the death penalty.

Background

Nevada law allows the death penalty for some murders, though no execution has been carried out since 2006. Keeping it would leave capital punishment available.
