Rep. Susie Lee Hosts Fifth Constituent Town Hall
Las Vegas, Nev. – Rep. Susie Lee (Nev.-03) hosted her fifth community town hall. The Congresswoman updated her constituents on the work she is doing in Congress in service of southern Nevada families, including her efforts to improve Nevada's education system and increase access to affordable health care.
Rep. Lee also highlighted her recent legislative accomplishments, including the Dignity in Aging Act, Student Veterans Protection Act, and the Newborn Care Improvement Act, three of Rep. Lee's bipartisan bills that all recently passed the House of Representatives.
"There is nothing more important to my work in Congress than hearing from my constituents," said Rep. Lee. "My goal leading into the 116th Congress was to help southern Nevada families to the best of my ability, and I am proud of what my office and I have accomplished so far to back that up. Just in the last month, the House passed three of my bills—all bipartisan—including two bills to improve education and health services for our veterans and one bill to strengthen resources and programs for our seniors by reauthorizing the Older Americans Act. I'm going to keep focusing on the issues that matter like improving our schools, lowering health care costs, and serving our veterans. No matter what chaos consumes Washington, I will not let anything distract me from solving problems for my constituents."
BACKGROUND: Rep. Lee continues to get things done Nevada's 3rd District as an active and collaborative legislator. In August, Rep. Lee was ranked as one of the most "active" freshmen Congresspeople in the 116th Congress, having introduced 12 bills and was one of six first term Congressmembers to have legislation passed by the Senate. Since, she has continued her work in the same solution-based, bipartisan spirit, continuing to get things done for southern Nevadans.
