RUN FOR SOMETHING: Minja Yan for Clark County Commission, District F
Minja Yan is a longtime resident of Clark County District F, a former UNLV commercial real estate adjunct professor, and a TEDx speaker who is running for Clark County Commissioner to tackle the rising cost of living and champion responsible growth.
Raised in Southwest Las Vegas, Minja is deeply committed to fighting for the community she calls home. Her record proves it:
Led the Clark County Chinatown Redevelopment Plan, where she gathered input from over 700 residents and small business owners to drive improvements in infrastructure, traffic, and public safety.
Mobilized the community to protect public lands, successfully defeated two federal bills that threatened to privatize 65,000 acres of public lands in Clark County, including areas near Blue Diamond Hill, Mountain’s Edge, Southern Highlands and Inspirada.
Helped shape the vision for Southern Nevada’s future through her work with regional and local government policymakers, championing people-first policies to support public transit, increase housing supply, and challenge entrenched power brokers and lobbyists.
Elevated her advocacy to the TEDx stage, where she delivered a TEDx talk on preserving historical Chinatowns across the country.
With locals being priced out of their own community, Minja believes in a Clark County that works for its residents, not against them.
She will use every tool available to create more quality jobs, lower housing costs, revolutionize our transportation system and make our streets and communities safer. She is committed to being the most accessible, proactive, and engaged commissioner District F has ever seen.
