Senate Republicans just blocked my bill to protect women who travel for reproductive care and those who help them. They want to allow state legislators to reach across state lines to punish and control women. It’s absolutely outrageous. I won't stop fighting for women's freedom.

My grandparents' retirement was Social Security and Medicare. I saw first-hand just how important these programs were to them, and to so many Nevadans today. I will not allow far-right Republicans to attack our seniors' hard-earned benefits.

Cortez Masto takes aim at egg prices, price gouging

19h

Nevadans sent me back to the Senate to lower costs, and that's what I'm fighting to get done.

Nevada’s average price for a carton of eggs has surged to $6.07 at the end of 2022, while the national average is $4.25, according to Catherine Cortez Masto’s letter.

I'm calling on House Republicans who want to play games with the livelihoods of veterans, seniors, and active-duty service members to think about the long term effects of default. Americans are counting on us to work together, not cause harm to so many across this country.

On this day in 1870, the 15th Amendment was ratified to guarantee that no American could be denied the right to vote on the basis of race. Today, we continue to fight to make sure every American has equal and fair access to the ballot box so everyone can make their voice heard.

If you're making eggs this morning in Nevada, you could be paying over $6 a dozen. I see it myself and I hear it from my family and from Nevadans. It's outrageous. I'm calling for an investigation. If bad actors are taking advantage of our families we must hold them accountable.

Shell reports highest profits in 115 years

Big Oil companies are posting their highest profits in more than a century, and working families are paying the price. I'm fighting to investigate Big Oil and stop any potential price gouging hurting Nevadans.

The surge in energy prices last year helps the firm to announce record profits of $39.9bn

Defaulting on our debt could cause thousands of active-duty service members in Nevada to go without pay and risk the benefits of hundreds of thousands of veterans. We cannot play political games with the livelihoods of our service members and veterans.

Too many Nevadans have had to choose between their life-saving medications and their next meal. But when we pushed to cap the cost of insulin for every family, Mitch McConnell blocked it. We capped costs for seniors on Medicare, and I'll keep working to get it done for Nevada.

For nearly a decade, the

has teamed with our partners in the Pacific to defend against China's predatory economic practices. I’m proud to see our Guardsmen will now continue that work with Samoa, and I will always be grateful for their service.

Working families need safe roads to get to their jobs and to pick up their kids from school. I worked to pass legislation to help us improve road safety, and new funds I delivered will help Las Vegas implement comprehensive safety plans and prevent deadly crashes.

Defaulting on our debt puts our seniors, veterans, and all Nevadans at risk. I joined my Senate colleagues today to send a clear message: it's time to stop playing political games with working families' livelihoods.

I was glad to attend the National Prayer Breakfast this morning. I'm looking forward to another year of working together with my Senate colleagues to deliver for working families in Nevada.

Supply chain issues have caused the prices of essential goods to skyrocket for Nevadans. That's why I passed bipartisan bills to bring supply chains back to America and reduce the disruptions that are hurting our families.

Man threatens mass shooting at Las Vegas synagogue: police

Republican-led states ask judge to shut down DACA program for immigrant "Dreamers"

DACA's demise would prevent nearly 600,000 immigrants known as "Dreamers" from renewing their deportation protections and work permits.

I'm on my way to preside over the Senate, thinking about my abuelo. He was a baker from Mexico who came to Nevada to build a better life for our family. Now his granddaughter is the first Latina senator - and I'm fighting so every family can have the same American Dream.

It was great to meet with fellow Catholics from Reno and Las Vegas to discuss our fight for social justice. I look forward to continuing our work together to combat child poverty, support families, and help those in need in our communities.

As we honor the start of #BlackHistoryMonth, we commemorate the history, culture, and struggle of the Black community in Nevada and across the country. We must always work to secure the equal rights and opportunities that so many have fought and sacrificed to achieve.

Las inversiones que aseguré para reducir los costos para los nevadenses están trabajando en nuestras comunidades. Seguiré luchando para apoyar a los nevadenses mayores y para asegurar que cada familia tenga acceso a viviendas de bajo costo.

As the Colorado River Shrinks, Washington Prepares to Spread the Pain

Nevada has done our part to conserve water and prepare for the drought we’re facing today. We'll continue to lead the way and make sure every state is doing its fair share to preserve our water coming off the Colorado River.

The seven states that rely on the river for water are not expected to reach a deal on cuts. It appears the Biden administration will have to impose reductions.
