As President Biden visits Las Vegas to announce $3 billion in Bipartisan Infrastructure Law funding for the Brightline West high-speed rail project, the contrast to Donald Trump’s failure to deliver on his promises couldn’t be more clear. While Trump’s infrastructure train grinded to a halt, President Biden and Democrats are bringing historic results to the Silver State despite Republicans’ opposition.
Here’s a look at how Trump failed to deliver infrastructure for Nevadans:
Under Trump, “infrastructure week” became a long-running joke after years of empty promises and zero results. In fact ..read more

Yesterday, six Republicans, including Nevada GOP Chair Michael McDonald and Jesse Law, a newly-announced candidate for state Assembly – were indicted by a grand jury on felony charges after pledging Nevada’s electoral votes to Donald Trump despite President Biden’s victory in the 2020 election.
Lombardo, who made “restoring law and order” a primary point in his gubernatorial campaign, has deep ties to these alleged criminals, including his “longtime friend” and Nevada GOP Chair McDonald. He also endorsed Law’s re-election as chair of the Clark County GOP, despite Law being a champion of Trump ..read more

Yesterday, the Nevada State Democratic Party launched its ‘Veto Villain’ campaign, which is holding Governor Lombardo accountable for vetoing legislation that would have supported Nevada families. While Lombardo brags about his record-setting number of vetoes in a single session, the social media campaign, backed by a digital ad buy targeting tens of thousands of swing voters, will inform Nevadans of policies that Lombardo blocked despite many having bipartisan and overwhelming support. By refusing to address the housing crisis, obstructing legislation to bring down the cost of prescript ..read more

Governor Joe Lombardo and legislative Republicans have once again proven they are more concerned with their bottomline than the wellbeing of Nevadans.
A recent deep dive from the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported at least six Republican legislators, including Senator Carrie Buck (SD-5) and Assemblywoman Heidi Kasama (AD-2), who is also running for Congress in Nevada’s Third District, voted against capping rent increases for seniors, establishing tenant protections and more while owning rental properties themselves – voting in favor of their own financial gain at a time when Nevada is exp ..read more

Today, the Nevada State Democratic Party launched a digital ad campaign detailing Joe Lombardo’s historic veto record which prevented vital legislation – including bill lowering prescription drug costs for all Nevadans, expanding access to contraception, and making housing more affordable – from becoming law. This campaign is one piece in a larger effort by the state party to hold Lombardo accountable and keep this administration’s out of touch agenda top of mind for Nevadans.
The Veto Villain campaign will highlight how Lombardo’s first year in office prioritized special interests over the w ..read more

Brown: The ACA should not be adopted in “any way, shape, or form.”
Just this week, Donald Trump doubled down on his pledge to “terminate” the Affordable Care Act. And he’s not alone in his attacks on ACA: Nevada Senate candidate Sam Brown has long opposed the widely popular health care law and its protections for Nevadans with preexisting conditions.
Here’s a quick recap of Brown’s attacks on quality, affordable health care:
During Brown’s 2014 bid for Texas House, he said the ACA should not be adopted in “any way, shape, or form” and that “we need to ..read more

Governor Joe Lombardo and his team are, once again, lying to Nevadans. While Lombardo takes credit for Nevada’s growing economy, new commentary from the Nevada Current highlights Lombardo’s “economic insignificance” and how Nevada’s economic progress can actually only be attributed to the work of President Biden and Democrats. Considering that Lombardo has failed to deliver any real policy to help Nevada families, it doesn’t come as a surprise that he’s playing pretend.

As Donald Trump doubles down on his threat to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and rip health care away from millions of Americans, it’s clear that he doesn’t care about the health of Nevadans or the devastating impact that repealing the ACA would have on Nevada’s Latino community.
When Nevada expanded Medicaid under the ACA, 40% of the newly-eligible population was Latino. In fact, the uninsured rate for Latino children in the Silver State decreased from 20% to 13.3% after this expansion – the largest decline in the country. Now, Trump wants to snatch away vital, lifesaving care from Neva ..read more

Today, Nevada State Democratic Party Chair Daniele Monroe-Moreno released the following statement in response to Donald Trump threatening to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which could raise health care costs and jeopardize coverage for hundreds of thousands of Nevadans, including at least 487,000 with preexisting conditions.
“Donald Trump is running on an agenda to make America sicker as he doubles down on his push to terminate the Affordable Care Act, which has provided Nevadans with lifesaving health care for over a decade,” said Nevada State Democratic Party Chair Daniele Monro ..read more
