Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo has raised more money than any gubernatorial candidate in state history, and almost none of it comes from working families. When a gold mining company complained about the state's top water regulator trying to protect our groundwater, Lombardo's administration fired the regulator, and three months later that same company's support for his PAC reached $1 million. After taking millions more from predatory real estate interests, he vetoed bills that would have capped rent hikes on seniors and reformed the eviction process. Joe Lombardo works for the corporate donors buying his office, not for the people of Nevada.
