Senator Cortez Masto

We know our elections in Nevada are safe and secure. The "SAVE America Act" isn't about election integrity. The reason Trump and his Republican Party are pushing this bill now is because they are afraid of being held accountable by the voters this November.

Here's the truth: A Nevada REAL ID *would not qualify on its own* to register to vote if the Republicans' SAVE America Act became law. This bill is not about voter ID, it's about voter suppression because Trump and his allies know Americans are fed up with their failed policies.

The @CFTC is looking the other way while prediction market companies tied to Trump's family profit by trampling on state and Tribal law. Chair Selig should keep in mind that ultimately this corruption will come to light and he will have to answer to Congress - potentially sooner than he thinks.

Detaining people like Juan won’t make America any safer. But it does hurt his family and create fear and uncertainty in communities like his who are contributing every day to this country. That may be Trump and Stephen Miller’s goal, but it is not who we are as Americans. Juan Chavez Velasco should be home, and Dreamers should have the pathway to citizenship they deserve.

Dreamers like Juan deserve to have peace of mind and the freedom to build their lives safely in the country they call home. Instead, this Administration is targeting them to fulfill their mass deportation quotas.

Juan Sebastian Chavez Velasco's nine month old daughter is in the hospital, but he can't be with her because he's been detained by Trump's ICE.

I just heard from a Nevadan who told me that because of the SAVE America Act, she plans to spend over $165 to apply for a passport just to be able to vote. Call your Senators and tell them to reject this voter suppression legislation: (202) 224-3121

Donald Trump and Washington Republicans cut Medicaid and raised the costs of health care for everyone, and now Americans are skipping meals just so they can afford to see a doctor and pay for their medications. Meanwhile, the ultra-wealthy get more tax breaks. How is that fair?

These children were victims of abuse and neglect and came to America for safety. They received special immigration protections to keep them from being abused again. But the Trump Admin. is ignoring those protections and sending children back into harm's way.

Sue Wagner led with grit and integrity in everything she did. I will always be grateful for her friendship, her inspiration, and the decades of service she gave to Nevada. She will be remembered not just as the first woman elected Lieutenant Governor of Nevada or one of the incredible leaders who secured a woman’s right to choose in our state - but also as someone who you could always count on to stand up for what’s right. My condolences go out to her family and loved ones tonight. Sue was a a true pioneer, and we will all miss her deeply.

Children are being traumatized because of the color of their skin. Even when they don't have family members who are undocumented, they feel fear because of what's happening to their peers who look like them. Trump's cruel and indiscriminate tactics have no place in this country.

That's not a hypothetical, it's what's happening right now as this Administration creates ridiculous, months-long delays to process DACA renewals. I'm pushing the Department of Homeland Security to cut down the processing time and deliver the peace of mind Dreamers deserve. cortezmasto.senate.gov/news/press-rel…

Picture this: you're a Nevadan with DACA. You're working, you're following the law, and you file on time for your renewal. But the Trump Admin. delays your renewal past the expiration date. Now, you've lost your work permit, possibly even your job. And if you have a family, that impacts everyone.

Donald Trump and Washington Republicans made the biggest Medicaid cuts in history so they could pay for more tax breaks for billionaires – and Nevada is one of the states that will suffer the most. These cruel Republican Medicaid cuts threaten Nevadans’ access to health care and I’ll keep fighting to overturn them.

I'm calling on my House colleagues to move quickly and pass the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act that the Senate passed last week. This is about bringing costs down for working families and making it easier for Americans to afford a home. It's common sense, let's get it done.

If you're struggling to pay for your gas to get to work or to keep food on the table for your family, the Trump Admin.'s message to you is that you are "the last of our concerns right now." At every single turn Trump and his cronies have put Americans last.
