Too many families are facing homelessness because of the housing crisis impacting our communities. Today, I met with the U.S. Mayors Task Force on Homelessness to discuss how we can deliver housing and supportive services for Nevadans struggling to find a safe and affordable home.
When this ramp was built at Walker Lake, the water would've come up to our waists. Thanks to Walker Basin Conservancy we've made progress toward recovery, but extreme drought still threatens the entire basin. That's why I'm pushing the Biden Admin to take action now to protect our water.
Great news - Harry Reid International Airport will receive critical funding I voted for to improve its runways and keep passengers safe.
I'll always fight to boost our tourism and hospitality economy and ensure that the millions who visit us each year can continue to do so safely.
Last week, I welcomed Secretary Pete Buttigieg to Las Vegas to hammer in the very first spikes of the Brightline West high-speed train.
We talked about building high-speed rail for decades. Now, thanks to Senate Democrats and President Biden' leadership, we're getting it done.
The U.S. Postal Service and Postmaster General DeJoy had no real answers to the questions Senator Jacky Rosen and I posed about the relocation of mail operations to California.
That's unacceptable, and I fully oppose this move that could put Nevada veterans, seniors, and families' mail at risk.
