Discussion Included Federal Workers From Multiple Critical Agencies That Serve Veterans And Keep Nevadans Safe
LAS VEGAS, NV – Amid the Trump Administration’s mass firings, U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) held a roundtable discussion in Las Vegas with federal workers. During the discussion, Senator Rosen heard directly about the devastating impact the Trump Administration and Elon Musk are having on federal workers and agencies that are critical for serving veterans and keeping Nevadans safe.
“Federal workers in Nevada go to work every day to serve our communities, doing everything from keeping our airports safe to making sure our veterans get the care they deserve,” said Senator Rosen. “It’s outrageous that the Trump Administration and Elon Musk are slashing federal resources and firing federal workers without a care of how this will affect Nevadans’ ability to get the services they rely on, all while working to give more tax cuts to the ultra-wealthy. I sat down with federal workers in Las Vegas today to hear about their experiences and discuss how I’m fighting back against these reckless, illegal actions.”
Senator Rosen has been a vocal opponent of the Trump Administration’s efforts to cut critical programs Nevadans rely on, all while trying to give further tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. She has pushed multiple Departments under the Trump Administration for detailed, public information regarding the impacts of President Trump’s federal funding freeze, hiring freeze, and terminations on Nevada – including the Department of the Interior, the U.S. Forest Service, the Social Security Administration, the National Nuclear Security Administration, and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Last week, Rosen helped introduce a bill to protect veterans, military spouses, and VA employees indiscriminately targeted in Elon Musk’s DOGE cuts at the VA and across the federal government.
