"Teaching for Tomorrow" - August 24

Ed exposes Ensign card scam - August 10

Ed addresses educators - July 31
On Thursday, Ed gave a major speech to the Nevada State Educators Association’s Summer Leadership Conference in which he called for bold action to improve public education, including creating high quality afterschool programs, rebuilding crumbling schools and preventing school violence.

Ed denounces drug industry front group ads - July 24

The ads, which attempt to deceive Nevadans about prescription drug reform in Congress, began airing in Las Vegas on Friday as part of the group's $65 million national scare campaign.

Protecting Social Security numbers - July 18/19
In Las Vegas and Reno, Ed vowed to work for a ban on the buying and selling of Social Security numbers to stop identity theft and privacy intrusions, saying: "Everyone should have a right to privacy, a right to control their own personal information."
Mexico trip - June 20
To show just how much the drug companies rip off American consumers, Ed flew with a group of seniors to San Diego and took a bus across the border to Tijuana, Mexico to purchase prescription drugs at much lower prices.

Thank you for visiting the online headquarters of my campaign for the United States Senate.
I believe that we need a new voice to tackle the tough issues in Washington and to represent all of Nevada's families. I'm not a professional politician - I'm running because I want to make a difference fighting for the issues that are important to you.
November may seem a long way off, but we could really use your help. If you would like to volunteer on the campaign, please contact our office or fill out the volunteer form to get involved.
Thanks again for visiting and I look forward to seeing you on the campaign trail!
Ed Bernstein
