Congresswoman, #NV03. Education Advocate & Community Leader. Mother of 2 awesome kids.
Joined June 2012
The constituents of #NV03 once again chose problem solving over extremism. I am honored to have received the support of so many Democrats, Republicans, and Independents who believe that working with anyone, regardless of party, is what’s best for Nevada and our country.

.@KamalaHarris is a true trailblazer. Her work fighting to improve education, demanding accountability in our justice system, and holding officials’ feet to the fire in committee hearings is so inspiring. I am honored to have her endorsement for my re-election campaign!

Just a reminder that every single House Republican voted against codifying abortion rights into federal law—and each one of them will vote to ban abortion nationwide the first chance they get.

Almost every Republican voted against protecting the right to birth control—all while stripping away abortion rights from millions of women across the country. Let that sink in.

Our families are hurting at the pump and at the grocery store. Today, House Democrats passed the Lower Food and Fuel Costs Act to cut costs for families. Republicans are talking about inflation. Democrats are fighting it.

Never count Nevada out! We will outwork, outorganize, and outvote because we know that it’s all on the line in November. We are a gambling state. But we will not gamble with our freedoms and our future. It was an incredible turnout for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz!

Former Majority Leader Harry Reid was a champion for Nevadans and all Americans. He was a mentor to many of our leaders, and his impact will never be forgotten. May his legacy be an inspiration to us as we build a better future. My thoughts are with his family.

News flash, Republicans: you can’t consistently position yourself against legislation supporting American families and claim you’re pro-life. How about taking care of all of our children?.

All Americans should have access to affordable health insurance. My parents both had high blood pressure and could not afford insurance after my dad lost his job. When my mother had a heart attack, it almost cost them their home. To me, this fight is personal. #WhyIRun.
We all have our own stories about health scares, insurance trouble, and times when we couldn't access care at all. Our pro-choice Democratic women were driven to run for office by their stories. Today, we're asking them to share those stories to show #WhyIRun for office.

A national abortion ban would strip away our right to privacy over our health care decisions. That’s the future Republican extremists want.

Abortion is a fundamental right. This is a devastating day for women across America.
The Supreme Court has voted to strike down Roe v. Wade, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito and obtained by POLITICO. “We hold that Roe and Casey must be overruled,” Alito writes.

NEW AD: I was a staunch advocate for abortion rights long before entering Congress. @VoteAprilBecker is endorsed by extremist anti-choice groups that want to make all abortions illegal—even in the case of rape or incest. There is a clear choice for Nevadans in November.

It doesn’t end with Roe. If Republicans have it their way, we’ll lose the right to marriage equality, personal privacy, and contraception too.

Senate Republicans are proposing a 15-week, nationwide ban on abortion today. Republicans won’t stop until they ban abortion everywhere—even in Nevada, where abortion rights have been protected for over two decades. We can’t let them gain the majority in Congress.
Breaking News: Senator Lindsey Graham proposed a federal 15-week abortion ban, attempting to unite the GOP ahead of elections and signaling that if the party wins the Senate, it could pursue the kind of national ban top Republicans have said was unlikely.

Abortion. Birth control. Personal privacy. These are rights I never had to worry about as a young woman—and now, my daughter has fewer rights than I did at her age. Extreme politicians won’t stop here. That’s why I’m going to keep fighting to protect our fundamental freedoms.

I just voted for the Respect for Marriage Act to protect same-sex and interracial marriage nationwide. The majority of Republicans voted against it. If it wasn’t clear enough before, it is now: Republicans want to strip away more of our constitutional rights.

If Republicans gain control of Congress, they will ban abortion nationwide. It was never about leaving it to the states. It was always about stripping away women’s reproductive freedom.

The cost of health care should not control your life. From voting to lower prescription drug prices to leading the charge to cap costs for seniors, I’m fighting to make health care affordable for all Nevadans.

Let's be clear:. 1. Partisan politics have no place in our electoral system. 2. Vote-by-mail is a trusted, safe system that has already been used by millions in many federal elections. 3. Nevadans did the right thing to make the ballot box safe and accessible this November.

Too many DC politicians are focused on partisan bickering instead of solving problems. I've been rolling up my sleeves & taking on tough problems for over 20 years, working to get real results for Nevada students & families. I plan on bringing the same approach to Congress. #NV03

The shutdown is another example of the disconnect between Main Street and Washington. Thousands of families, including many in Nevada, will suffer because of this political brinkmanship. It’s time for Congress and the President to do their jobs and pass an annual budget. #NV03.

I’m with @CortezMasto—and the battle to uphold Roe is just the beginning. We will always fight to ensure that women have the right to make their own health care choices.
