Nevada First

At its core, my vision is simple: a Nevada where government steps back to let individuals soar, where faith, family, and freedom are protected, and where every resident can thrive in the spirit that made us great. Together, we'll reclaim that legacy, reject overreach, and forge a prosperous, safe, and innovative state for generations to come. Nevada isn't just a place. Nevada is a promise requiring courageous leadership

QUALITY EDUCATION. POWER TO PARENTS, NOT GROOMERS.

Nevada schools are failing because parents were pushed out.


Cowan Delivers:

  • Universal School Choice: Expand ESAs so education dollars follow the child—no ZIP-code traps.

  • Parents’ Bill of Rights: Parents control curriculum transparency, medical decisions, and school records.

  • Results-Based Funding: Tie school funding to reading, math, and graduation outcomes—not bureaucracy.

  • Classrooms First: Shift money from district overhead to teachers, classrooms, and special education.
     

Bottom Line: Parents decide. Schools perform—or lose funding.

LOWER COST OF LIVING. MAKE BUSINESS BOOM

Nevada doesn’t have a worker shortage—it has a government problem.

Cowan Delivers:

  • Regulatory Sunset Law: Kill outdated regulations unless lawmakers re-approve them.

  • Small Business Protection Votes: No new rule without a public cost and compliance impact.

  • No New Taxes Pledge: Oppose tax hikes on small businesses and family employers.

  • Permit Deadlines: End endless delays—clear timelines or automatic approval.

  • Nevada First Contracting: Keep state dollars with Nevada businesses.

Bottom Line: Less government. More jobs. Stronger local economies.

BACK THE BADGE. PUNISH CRIMINALS.

Soft-on-crime policies put criminals first. Cowan puts families first.

Cowan Delivers:

  • Repeal Soft-on-Crime Laws: Restore real consequences for repeat and violent offenders.

  • Victims-First Sentencing: Mandatory minimums for violent crime and trafficking.

  • Support Law Enforcement: Protect funding, staffing, and recruitment.

  • Defend the 2nd Amendment: Stop laws that punish lawful citizens instead of criminals.

  • Bail Reform: Keep violent offenders off the streets pretrial.

Bottom Line: Criminals are held accountable. Communities are safe.
