I fought to include essential measures in the Inflation Reduction Act to combat the extreme drought we're facing in the West. Now, I'm pushing the Biden Admin. to work quickly to put those resources to work to protect our water for future generations.

I led the fight to pass the FEND Off Fentanyl Act because we need real action to combat the flow of fentanyl into our communities.

That's what this new law does by cracking down on the financing that international smuggling rings rely on to fund their operations.

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.

As National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month comes to an end, our fight for survivors does not.

I'm proud to join my Senate colleagues on a resolution highlighting the need for more resources to support victims of sexual assault, and I will always stand with them.

Paul and I are sending our thoughts to the families of the four officers who lost their lives in the line of duty yesterday, and we wish a speedy recovery to the officers who remain hospitalized. They all served courageously to keep us safe and we will always be grateful to them.

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.

Solar energy should be affordable and accessible for Tribal communities. That's what the Solar for All program is helping to do in Nevada.

I'm proud to have secured this funding to ensure every community in this state can be part of our clean energy future.

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.

So far this spring, the Supreme Court has heard arguments from the anti-choice right pushing them to restrict the abortion pill and strip away women's emergency health care protections.

It's outrageous, and we have to stand together to defend women's rights and freedoms.

Fentanyl has already killed too many of our loved ones all across this country. It's time to take action.

I'm proud to have voted to send the FEND Off Fentanyl Act to President Biden's desk, and I'll keep fighting to do everything I can to keep Nevadans safe.

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.

At the Desert Research Institute, I saw the work they're doing to keep our environment healthy by researching innovative methods for detecting pollutants like microplastics.

That's critical work, and I'm proud to have fought to support them in the Senate.

To protect our national security, we need to work together with our friends and allies in the Indo-Pacific.

My bipartisan legislation ensures that we coordinate across the Pacific to boost stability, grow our economies, and outcompete the Communist Party of China.

I pushed for STEM education investments for our kids here in Nevada through partners like @driscience.

This is about making sure young Nevadans have every opportunity to succeed in growing 21st century industries, and I'll keep working to deliver even more for their future.

Less traffic on I-15, cleaner transportation, and thousands of good-paying union jobs - thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law I fought for, all of that is on its way to Nevada through the Brightline West high-speed train.

From battery manufacturing to critical minerals, Nevada is already at the center of our growing clean energy economy.

Now, new investments I secured are on their way to boost our critical mineral supply chain and create even more good-paying Nevada jobs.

The Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge is a critical habitat for endangered species, and it's the lifeblood of communities in Nye County.

Meeting with advocates and community members this week, I'm committed to protecting this land and everyone that relies on it.
