Dig a little deeper, and the backroom dealing between Lombardo and CCEA is even worse than it looks. Lombardo has been a key supporter of data centers, now a huge political liability. Enter CCEA, making big claims about school funding. Let take a look at what we know…
I'm at the Commission on School Funding meeting as their work is under attack. Check these clips from CCEA's September presser and ads the PAC is currently running in the Governor's race...

Joe Lombardo calls lobbyists his friends. It shows. Stadium subsidies. Hollywood handouts. Data center tax breaks. For the rest of us? $2 more per student. Vetoes of school meals, paid family medical leave, and many others. Joe's friends get favors. Nevadans get the veto pen.
Leaked audio: GOP Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo tells advisors "the lobbyists are your friends" (Lombardo vetoed dozens of cost-cutting measures while taking money from the tech, pharmaceutical, and utility lobbies)

And we’re not even sure where the $500 million figure comes from. The Governor’s executive order addresses future data center abatements and does not even guarantee that revenue. NSEA believes data centers should pay all the taxes...

but projected revenue from one industry cannot replace the comprehensive, sustainable funding plan Nevada's public schools need. We urge the Commission to reaffirm their revenue recommendations. #SeriouslyPassThePlan

A few weeks ago, @AaronDFordNV said to Clark County educators: “The leadership may have said one thing, but the membership is supporting me and it’s the membership that votes.” He's right! A survey from @strongpubliced shows Ford leading Lombardo 52% to 32% among CCSD educators!
“Here’s what I’ve heard: members of the union are supporting me. The leadership may have said one thing, but the membership is supporting me and it’s the membership that votes. And I’m honored to have the support of the NSEA. "If you’re a ccea member, raise your hand”🙌🙌🙌

CCEA PAC Strategic Horizons is out with an ad that makes it seem like Joe Lombardo has widespread teacher support. But is that really the case?

Lombardo claims his top education accomplishment was the 2023 funding bill. Ironically, he introduced a budget that was actually lower than required by statute. #nvleg
"But critics — such as the Nevada State Education Association, which has endorsed Lombardo's Democratic opponent, Attorney General Aaron Ford, and Assm. Selena La Rue Hatch, a Washoe County social studies high school teacher — gave Lombardo's efforts on K-12 education an F."

And that was the session with billions in new money coming out of COVID. Last session, Lombardo showed up with a budget that would have cut per-pupil funding. When we pushed back on that, they redrafted the budget to come up with a $2 increase. nsea-nv.org/resource-library…
