The Inflation Reduction Act will reduce costs for seniors, with my provision to cap out-of-pocket costs at $2k. It will lower energy costs, a major driver of inflation. And my bill, the HOME Act would lower housing costs and ensure you get a fair shot to buy a home.
WASHINGTON – Congressman Steven Horsford this week voted for historic, bipartisan legislation to strengthen Nevada families’ financial future, boost America’s research advantage and safeguard our economic and national security for generations to come. The CHIPS and Science Act will deliver a powerful investment in America’s global competitiveness – creating jobs, slashing kitchen table costs, ending dependence on foreign manufacturers and turbocharging American innovation.

Este es gran parte del problema, ya que al acaparar el mercado inmobiliario impulsan un aumento desorbitado de los costes de alquiler y compra, convirtiendo a los residentes de Las Vegas en una auténtica odisea para encontrar una vivienda a un precio asequible.
I am writing to express my concern about the targeting of middle-class families by investors who are significantly raising rents, sometimes by more than 30 percent.

The goal now is to revive the Cheyenne Sports Complex and make it the central hub for recreation up north once again.
