Immigration & Border
Supports legal immigration for workers but emphasizes stronger enforcement and border security; has criticized the current "open border" situation and linked immigration flows to crime and resource pressures. Positions favor tighter controls and enforcement-focused responses rather than expanded pathways or regularization.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports near-total restrictions on abortion, saying he would not allow abortion except when the mother’s life is at risk and describing pro‑choice laws as unconstitutional.
Climate & Energy
Supports development of nuclear waste storage at Yucca Mountain as an economic resource for Nevada and frames his positions around energy development and state economic benefits. Public filings and campaign materials identify him as a conservative candidate without prominent support for aggressive emissions-reduction frameworks or Green New Deal–style policies.
