Priorities
Drew's Top Priorities
Boost Nevada's Credit Rating & Lower Borrowing Costs
Drew will strengthen Nevada’s financial standing so the state pays less interest on roads, schools, and public safety projects — saving taxpayers money and stopping higher taxes. By enforcing disciplined fiscal management, increasing transparency, and protecting Nevada’s reserve funds, Drew will ensure Nevada is seen as a low-risk, well-managed state that gets better rates and better outcomes.
TLDR: Drew will ensure that Nevada’s credit rating is strengthened. That means Nevada keeps more of its money instead of sending it to banks and bondholders, freeing up dollars for the services Nevadans rely on.
Increase Financial Literacy
Drew will strengthen financial education to protect seniors from scams and give young Nevadans a real path out of debt and generational poverty. By expanding access to clear, practical financial education and partnering with community organizations, schools, and senior services, Drew will help Nevadans recognize fraud, avoid predatory lending, and make smarter decisions with their money at every stage of life.
TLDR: Drew will help seniors keep their savings safe from scammers and help young Nevadans avoid debt traps that keep families struggling. That means more financial independence, less fraud, and stronger futures for Nevada families.
Refinance State Bonds
Drew will act when interest rates fall, refinancing state bonds to free up millions that can be returned to taxpayers or invested where they matter most. Just like families refinance their mortgages to lower monthly payments, Drew will make sure Nevada doesn’t overpay on long-term debt — locking in lower rates when opportunities arise and putting smart timing to work for taxpayers.
TLDR: Drew will make sure Nevada doesn’t overpay on its debt. When rates drop, the state should pay less — keeping more money in Nevada instead of handing it over to lenders.
Maximize Investment Returns
Drew will responsibly manage state investments to earn stronger returns for Nevada while protecting taxpayer dollars from unnecessary risk. By focusing on long-term, disciplined investment strategies and clear oversight, Drew will ensure public funds work harder — strengthening reserves and Nevada’s financial future.
TLDR: Drew will make Nevada’s money work smarter, not riskier — earning better returns so taxpayers and retirees are more secure.
There is no one better prepared to tackle this challenge. As one of America’s best-known and most-effective government watchdogs, Drew has exposed billions of dollars in wasteful government spending and saved taxpayers more than $60 billion in my career.
Cut Government Waste & Slash Fees
Drew will serve as a watchdog for taxpayers, rooting out waste, reducing hidden fees, and making sure government spends money responsibly. By closely reviewing state accounts, vendor contracts, and fee structures, Drew will push for leaner operations and greater accountability — so government lives within its means instead of quietly passing costs on to Nevada families.
TLDR: Drew will stop wasteful spending and cut unnecessary fees so Nevadans keep more of their own money — not lose it to inefficiency and bureaucracy.
Return Every Unclaimed Dollar
Drew will track down and return unclaimed funds to the Nevadans who earned them — putting money back in people’s pockets instead of leaving it stuck in bureaucracy. By modernizing outreach, improving notification systems, and making the claims process easier, Drew will ensure more Nevadans actually get the money the state is holding on their behalf.
TLDR: Drew will return lost money to its rightful owners — not let it sit in a government account while families struggle.
Modernize State Financial Systems
Drew will modernize outdated state financial systems so Nevada operates faster, more transparently, and at a lower cost to taxpayers. By upgrading technology, improving data tracking, and streamlining processes, Drew will reduce errors, cut administrative costs, and make it easier for Nevadans to interact with their government.
TLDR: Drew will bring Nevada’s financial systems out of the past, cutting red tape and wasted time so government costs less and works better for taxpayers.
