John,

I’m Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford. And I’m announcing my campaign to be the next Governor of Nevada.

I’m running for one reason above all: Too many Nevadans are working harder than ever and still getting nowhere – and I know we can change that.

I’ve spent my career fighting for families like mine, because I’ve lived what so many people are facing right now. I come from a family that worked hard, but struggled. Some nights, all we had to eat were stale candy bars.

I became a dad during college – and a single dad not long after. I relied on food stamps and Medicaid to keep going. But I didn’t give up. I kept fighting.

I became a public school math teacher. I earned five degrees. I raised four boys with my wife Berna. I ran for State Senate, then became Majority Leader, then Attorney General – and every step of the way, I’ve carried one mission with me: To fight for the Nevada Family.

Will you split a donation of $5, $10, $20 — whatever you can — between my campaign and The Collective PAC, to help kick off our campaign and build the grassroots movement we need to flip this seat blue? Nevada deserves a fighter — and that’s who I’ve been my entire life. [[link removed]]

While I’ve been fighting to make life safer and more affordable for every Nevadan, Trump Republican Joe Lombardo has done the opposite – blocking housing reform, vetoing school meals and lower drug prices, and cheering on Donald Trump’s plan to gut education and health care. Unemployment is up, costs are through the roof, and working people are getting squeezed. Nothing’s gotten better under his watch – and that’s why I’m running to unseat him.

The Cook Political Report called Lombardo “the most vulnerable Republican governor in the country.” This isn’t just a top flip opportunity – it’s the flip opportunity. If we show up early and big, we can take this seat back. But if we don’t, we lose it. It’s that simple.

I’m humbly asking, John: Will you give $15 or more now, split between my campaign and The Collective PAC, to help me win in Nevada and restore real leadership to our state? I set a goal to raise $250,000 in the first 24 hours of this campaign, and it would mean the world to me to have you on my team. [[link removed]]

The right way ahead is forward. Thank you for joining this fight to help get us there.

Aaron Ford
