I'm honored that @commongroundcom named me the most bipartisan member of Congress. Now, more than ever, Congress must work together and I am proud to be leading that charge. The stakes are too high and time is too short for partisan bickering and political inaction.

Grateful to join this important conversation with @dreambignv and @FWDus to talk about my work supporting immigrants in southern Nevada. I’m focused on solutions: protecting Dreamers, defending due process, and passing bipartisan immigration reform that makes our system fast,

Had a chance to meet rising labor leaders at the AFL-CIO Organizing Institute. Workers are the backbone of southern Nevada. Together, we are fighting for better pay, labor standards, and a future for working families in our state.

Six hours. That’s all it took for a small business to get slammed with a 50% tariff. Elana Woldenberg Ruffman, VP of Marketing and Product Development at @hand2mind, shares how “emergency” tariffs forced her team to sprint across continents to make a children’s toy—only to be

While the Trump Administration refused to distribute SNAP benefits and abandoned working people, I joined members of our community fighting to make sure southern Nevada families can put food on the table.

🚨 SNAP benefits will now be fully funded— as they should’ve been in the first place. If you are still in immediate assistance at this time, please reach out to Nevada 211:

Nevada 211, a program of the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services, is committed to helping Nevadans connect with the services they need.

Well, @OpenAI just banned @ChatGPT from giving medical advice. @Doctronic is built different: peer-reviewed clinical validation, a network of licensed physicians across all 50 states, and partnerships that let us keep expanding. We're not pulling back. We're moving forward.

We’ve already seen this Administration's reckless tariff policies cause tourism to plummet here in Nevada. Now, Washington Republicans’ decision to force the longest shutdown in American history is only making things worse. Las Vegas businesses and workers will pay the price for
Harry Reid Airport will face a 10% reduction in flight capacity starting Friday due to FAA staffing shortages linked to the federal shutdown. The cuts could disrupt thousands of flights and cost the Las Vegas economy hundreds of millions of dollars in lost visitor spending.

As I’ve said before: Nevadans are entitled to ALL of their SNAP benefits this month. The Trump Administration ILLEGALLY blocked them and now families are going hungry because of it. Follow the law. Feed hungry families. End the chaos ⬇️ https://t.co/rvzGWSj6OI

The Trump administration recently said it would not pay any SNAP benefits, but then offered partial funding of the food stamp program after a judge's ruling.

Somer is a Nevadan who used SNAP to buy her groceries. Because the Trump Administration illegally withheld and delayed SNAP benefits in November, Nevadans like Somer could go hungry. President Trump is using hunger as a political weapon. I’m fighting to make sure Nevadans get

Sat down with UNLV Rebel Vets to hear how I can best support Nevada’s student veterans. From career readiness programs to mental health services, I’m working hard in Congress to ensure our student veterans have the tools they need as they transition to civilian life here in

🚨CHECK YOUR SNAP BALANCE 🛒 State officials recently announced that partial SNAP benefits are being issued to nearly 196,000 Nevada households. I'm grateful these Nevadans are receiving support to feed their families. But let me be clear: ❌ NO ONE is receiving the full SNAP

Glad I could join the NV Organized Retail Crime Association to provide an update on my Combatting Organized Retail Crime Act, which has gained bipartisan support from over a third of Congress. Organized retail crime costs Nevada over $1 billion in lost products, higher

The #TrumpSlump is giving the Great Recession and COVID-19 Pandemic a run for their money here in Las Vegas… This Administration’s chaotic economic policies are continuing to kill tourism in Vegas, hurting workers and businesses alike.

Today, the ongoing federal government shutdown became the longest in American history. This shameful milestone is purely a result of congressional Republicans’ and President Trump’s refusal to work in good faith to protect health care for the American people. Rather than

Got to see Silver Belle in Las Vegas as it makes its way to Washington 🎄 This is the first time the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree is coming from Nevada. I’m sure Silver Belle will shine as bright as Las Vegas on Capitol Hill!

When my dad was 56, he lost his job and our health insurance. Then, just months before becoming eligible for Medicare, my mom had a heart attack. Their hospital bill was equivalent to the value of our home. I’m fighting to make health care affordable. If Republicans in
