Governor Steve Sisolak was born into a working-class family in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where his parents, Ed and Mary worked hard to provide for their three children. Gov. Sisolak inherited their blue-collar ethic, working full-time to put himself through college at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He then enrolled in UNLV’s Graduate Studies Program, where he received a master’s degree in 1978.
Steve believes all Nevadans deserve quality, affordable health care, and that nobody should ever be denied coverage or charged more for being sick, elderly, or a woman. As governor, Steve will protect Nevadans’ access to care and stand up to any attempts to roll back coverage for our families.
