Public Safety

I am glad to see the large-scale investments in taking care of our service members in President Biden's FY24 budget by increasing service member compensation, launching Universal pre-kindergarten at all Department of Defense Education Activity schools, and continuing to combat sexual assault and harassment in the services.

I'm so excited to have a leader like Congressman Maxwell Frost leading on the issues of gun safety. He represents the generation that has been affected the most by gun violence every single day and the mass shootings that have occurred. Because of his legislation and other measures like it, we are going to work hard to keep all of our communities safe.

Achieving transparency in policing should be our top priority to eliminate substandard practices. By working together, we can address the public safety crisis and ensure the well-being of everyone in our community.

As responsible members of our community, we understand the pressing need for a transformation in policing practices. Although this issue affects everyone's safety, it is evident that black and brown communities face a disproportionate impact.

As citizens, it is important for us to prioritize public safety and hold those in law enforcement accountable. While many men and women in law enforcement carry out their duties with honor, it is crucial to address incidents of bad policing practices. 

This is not a Republican problem or a Democratic problem - this is a public safety issue. It's not something that only some of us have to fix; this is something that all of us have to work together to address.

As the representative of Nevada, I know the importance of Nellis Air Force Base, Creech Air Force Base, and the Nevada test and training range. These locations house numerous critical assets vital to our country's security. As a result, I believe that transparency is critical when it comes to the information being collected in these areas.
