Any attempt by this administration to defund or sabotage the Affordable Care Act is simply wrong, and I am determined to fight against it every step of the way. First and foremost, it protects individuals with pre-existing conditions, ensuring that they have access to the healthcare they need. Additionally, our plan aims to strengthen the health exchanges, which serve as vital online marketplaces for purchasing insurance. This is particularly crucial in rural Nevada counties where there may be limited provider options.
The people of Nevada have made it clear that they do not want the Yucca Mountain project, and even the President himself acknowledged this during a visit to our state in October 2018. However, despite the wishes of Nevadans, the President's budget proposal includes an allocation of $160 million to restart the licensing process for the Yucca Mountain project. This goes against the will of the people and disregards the potential risks and concerns associated with storing nuclear waste in our state.
Steven Horsford demands answers about the President’s proposal to spend $116 million restarting licensing for the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Repository. Congressman Horsford questioned Acting Office of Management Director Russell Vought about the request given the President’s claim in October that he was “inclined to be against” the Yucca Mountain project.
