Las Vegas Native & Proud Son of Immigrants - Former Senior Advisor to @Nevada_ONA, comms team to Gov Sisolak, & @NevadaStateU family. Tweets are my own.
Thank you, U.S. Senator Raphael Warnock, for visiting the great state of Nevada & meeting with the Nevada Latino Democratic Caucus.
Nevada 🤝 Georgia
When communities come together, our shared values & democracy grows stronger.
I’m excited to file for reelection to the Nevada Assembly today. Becoming a mom has been the greatest joy of my life, and with baby #2 on the way, it’s deepened my commitment to building a Nevada where all families can thrive. Proud to serve our community. #NVLeg#AD16
Nearly 45,000 Nevada residents who receive food stamp benefits could lose them in the coming week for not meeting mandatory work requirements, according to the state.

‘I Just Want to Get Out of Here’: ICE Is Detaining Hundreds of Children https://t.co/JtQzuVFbCB
Henderson city council can make sure there are no children in the Henderson Detention center used by ICE. 👶🏽likely 🇺🇸 citizens or part of a family seeking asylum (legally in 🇺🇸)
Yukon Pizza, one of the most popular pizza shops in Las Vegas, plans to close tomorrow January 30th to join a nationwide "economic blackout" protest against ICE and recent federal immigration enforcement actions.
This sentiment from the First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California is dangerous and wrong.
Responsible public voices should be awaiting a full investigation, not making generalizations and demonizing law-abiding citizens.
Enforcing the law is one thing.
Terrorizing a population, using children as pawns, is another.
My heart aches for Liam Ramos and his family.

Donald Trump’s actions in Venezuela do not make America safer, stronger, or more affordable.
That Maduro is a brutal, illegitimate dictator does not change the fact that this action was both unlawful and unwise. We’ve seen this movie before. Wars for regime change or oil that are sold as strength but turn into chaos, and American families pay the price.
The American people do not want this, and they are tired of being lied to.
This is not about drugs or democracy. It is about oil and Donald Trump’s desire to play the regional strongman. If he cared about either, he wouldn’t pardon a convicted drug trafficker or sideline Venezuela’s legitimate opposition while pursuing deals with Maduro’s cronies.
The President is putting troops at risk, spending billions, destabilizing a region, and offering no legal authority, no exit plan, and no benefit at home.
America needs leadership whose priorities are lowering costs for working families, enforcing the rule of law, strengthening alliances, and — most importantly — putting the American people first.
It’s #GivingTuesday!
