John Zingale is the only choice for the 18th Legislative District. Just as Lewis and Clark once embarked on the famous expedition, Zingale has his sights on a brighter future for the community, and as a resident invested in our district, I can’t find a more worthy candidate.
Public education is the river that nourishes our society, and Zingale, an award-winning teacher, is a steadfast navigator, committed to charting a course that ensures every child has access to quality learning. He understands that investing in education is not just a matter of resources; it’s about forging pathways for our students to thrive. Supported schools graduate future-ready adults who will contribute to Clark County and beyond.
What truly sets Zingale apart is his tireless integrity in providing education. He believes that every child deserves a seat at the table of opportunity and that the heart of education lies within families whose voices should be heard alongside their students. Zingale will confront the obstacles that underfunded schools encounter, advocating for the resources they desperately need. He will build partnerships between our school systems, families and our Washington leaders to ensure we journey together toward success.
We need leaders who can unite us around common goals that benefit everyone. John Zingale not only listens to educators, parents, and students but collaborates with them to create meaningful change. He is dedicated to teamwork and perseverance that defines successful expeditions, and I can’t think of a better candidate to navigate today’s challenges toward future opportunities.
I urge voters to consider the impact of our choices on public education. By supporting John Zingale, we are not just casting a ballot; we are investing in a brighter future for all.
