I'm Sam Brown: That's why I want Nevada to vote in the Senate

Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen has spent nearly a decade in Washington, and the result? Families in Nevada are paying more at the pump, facing record-high grocery bills and struggling to afford to rent or buy a home in their own communities. Washington should be a place where we fight for our people and serve those who sent us there. But for Jacky Rosen, it's a career goal where votes are cast according to D.C.'s agenda while Nevadans foot the bill.

Senator Rosen has spent her years in Washington voting for Joe Biden 98% of the time and against President Trump 100% of the time.

Instead of representing Nevada, she has embraced Kamala Harris' agenda, which has brought us soaring inflation, border chaos, and policies that leave working families behind. When Nevada needed a vote, Senator Rosen decided to side with Biden and Harris and ignored the problems of families just trying to make ends meet.

I'm running for Senate to serve the people of Nevada, not the career politicians in Washington. I know what's at stake if DC forgets who they work for. Unlike my opponent, I have experienced the challenges that so many Nevadans face every day: working long hours, watching costs rise while salaries remain the same, and feeling like the American dream is growing further out of reach device. We rightly feel a deep sense of betrayal when politicians fail to deliver on their promises and leave us behind – and that's exactly what Jacky Rosen did.

After nearly eight years in office, Senator Rosen has failed to address the issues that matter most to us. Instead of putting Nevada's needs first, she has aligned herself with Washington insiders and partisan agendas, and Nevadans have paid the price.

Take, for example, her stance on women's sports – a clear question of fairness and respect. Here in Nevada, we know what it means to compete as equals, which is why the young women on the UNR volleyball team recently took a stand. They are fighting for their right to safe and fair competition, but Senator Rosen doesn't even recognize them. Instead of supporting these young women and their courage, she prefers to follow the political winds of Washington that have no place in Nevada's sense of justice.

Yes, Senator Jacky Rosen voted to allow men to participate in women's sports. This is not fairness; This is a woke agenda, and it has no connection to our state's values. I was proud to stand with the UNR volleyball team as they played and supported their right to safety and privacy. We should all be ready to stand with our young women who have the courage to defend their rights.

When it comes to the economy, Senator Rosen's record is a painful reminder of what career politicians are willing to sacrifice for a vote. Every policy she supports has made life more expensive for Nevada families. Gasoline, groceries and essentials have become luxuries under their watch while spending in D.C. spirals out of control. Nevadans are tired of living paycheck to paycheck.

We are tired of skimping on essentials while Washington plays with our tax dollars like monopoly money. Families in Nevada live within their means and work hard to make ends meet, and the federal government should do the same.

Nevada Democratic Senator Jacky Rosen

When I get to the Senate, I will work tirelessly to curb the reckless spending that drives inflation. I will keep taxes low on essential goods because no family should have difficulty affording food or medicine. And I will advocate for energy independence policies that lower costs, following President Trump's lead in ensuring America's self-sufficiency. Nevadans should not be forced to pay the price of policies written by DC insiders who have never felt the burden of rising bills. Nevada deserves leaders who will fight for every dollar, every job and every family – not for political favors or campaign donors.

Every worker who relies on tips to pay rent, buy groceries, and put food on the table needs to know this: taxing tips is wrong and must end. Nearly 20% of Las Vegas works for tips, and those dollars should go directly into your pocket – not the IRS. President Trump understands this fight and has a plan to eliminate taxes on tips to protect Nevada's hardworking service industry. Jacky Rosen has had years to make this change but hasn't even tried it yet. In fact, she supported Joe Biden's hiring of 87,000 new IRS agents to target working families and tipped workers. In the Senate, I will stand with President Trump and repeal taxes on tips. It's not just common sense; it's fair.

For Nevada's seniors and working families, fairness also means keeping the promises made to those who rely on Social Security and Medicare. These programs aren’t just talking points – they’re lifelines. I know this because Social Security and Medicare were there for me during my recovery. However, Jacky Rosen has ignored the very real solvency issues these programs face, choosing reckless spending over responsibility. I won't allow that. In the Senate, I will work to ensure that social security and health insurance are also financed for future generations. And I will end double taxation on Social Security benefits because Nevadans shouldn't have to pay again for what they've already earned.

Let's not forget border security, an issue that Senator Rosen has consistently failed to address. Our communities are suffering the consequences of an open border, from the surge of millions of illegal border crossings to the increase in dangerous drugs like fentanyl entering our cities. Jacky Rosen ignored the threats that come with a porous border, and that decision has put lives at risk. She has repeatedly voted against funding border security while Nevadans face the consequences. It helped create this border crisis, but President Trump and I will end it.

As your Senator, I will make border security a top priority. I will ensure that our law enforcement and border patrol agents have the resources they need, that we build secure infrastructure, complete the wall, confront the cartels, and protect our communities from the dangerous consequences of DC's inaction.

Working with President Trump, I will bring this back America first Agenda that benefited all Nevadans. Under his leadership, we had secure borders, a strong economy, and a safer, more prosperous America. Gas prices were lower, grocery bills were affordable, and safety and opportunity were within everyone's reach.

Compare that to the record of Jacky Rosen and Kamala Harris, whose lack of real leadership has brought economic ruin, sacrificed our national security, and cost us our reputation as leaders of the free world. President Trump understands Peace through strength– a principle I will carry forward in the Senate to protect and restore the American Dream for every Nevadan.

My promise is simple: I will work with President Trump and be a leader for every Nevadan. I will bring your votes to Washington, not DC's agenda to Nevada. I am running to serve you and respectfully ask for your vote.
