It's Broke, Let's Fix It
Vote Bret Delaire for University of Nevada Regent, District 9
CAMPAIGN UPDATES
Primary is June 11, 2024
Here are some of my positions:
In September 2021, the incumbent, my opponent, voted for vaccine mandates. I would not have then, and would not in the future, vote for any similar mandates.
I support paper ballots, voter ID, signature verification, and chain of custody.
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Children have the right to be protected from sexual grooming including drag shows, explicit materials in schools and libraries, and other public venues.
Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, or sorority houses.
Why are you running to be a Nevada System of Higher Education trustee?
My business background in finance and accounting makes me a unique member of the board to help balance their budget. For example, financial statement analysis can be performed to highlight any inefficiencies. Common sense business experience can help the board do more with less. Program reviews can also be performed to make the interests of the students the top priority.
What do you want to accomplish?
I would like to use achievement tests to help guide students into careers that match their abilities and the needs of the community. Trade programs should reflect the demands of local employers and encourage small business ownership.
What do you think could be done better or differently by the state’s public colleges and universities?
During Covid 19 the current Board of Regents, including the district 9 incumbent (my opponent) that is running for re-election voted in favor of vaccine mandates for all our Nevada colleges students. College age students were very low risk for complications of COVID-19, and unfortunately had a very high rate of myocarditis. Students who refused to get vaccinated were expelled.
College age students are adults and should have been allowed to make their own decisions regarding the MRNA Covid 19 vaccine. Other things I would do differently, expand the type and number of trade programs and strive to hire a Chancellor that encourages students to reach their God-given potential.
In case you're wondering if you live in District 9, here is the map.
