“At the same time, right now, we have more questions for the Trump Administration than answers. The American people are opposed to another forever war. These strikes came without the approval of Congress or the American people," said Congresswoman Lee.

“This is certainly an area where we need improvement,” Lee told the 8 News Now Investigators. “Remember, this woman had health insurance. She thought she was covered.”

It’s been a difficult year. We’re living in unprecedented times, and many people are worried about what they’re seeing in Washington. First, we faced illegal funding freezes, the world’s richest person and his DOGE team illegally dismantling crucial programs, a partisan spending bill causing health care costs to soar, the longest government shutdown in American history, and so much more.

"And the success of our students is just too important to leave that gap open," said U.S. Rep. Susie Lee, one of the lawmakers who introduced the bill. "And this expansion act will allow more schools, especially in high-need areas, to participate in programs offered under the full-service community school program."

Congresswoman Susie Lee has announced a nearly $12 million federal investment aimed at addressing Nevada's critical shortage of school psychologists and expanding mental health services for students. "In order to provide our students the quality mental health care they deserve, we need to hire and train more school psychologists," Lee said. "This $12 million investment will do just that — helping Nevada train more school psychologists and place them in the communities that need it most."

“After more than two decades, our law finally recognizes those forgotten veterans who served at NTTR and who have been excluded from the care they earned and need,” Lee said in a statement to the Sun. “I am hopeful that the Department of Defense will quickly establish a process for these veterans to receive their benefits.”

“Everyone hears out of Washington how divided things are back in D.C., but this is an issue that’s clearly bipartisan,” said U.S. Rep. Susie Lee, D-Nev. “Fentanyl, substance abuse does not have an ‘R’ or ‘D’ behind it. It affects every community across this country.”

“We’ve seen far too many of our neighbors, of our children in Southern Nevada struggle with addiction and substance abuse. And it doesn’t just impact their families. It’s... them as individuals. It’s something that impacts our families. It impacts our schools. It impacts our communities,” said Rep. Lee.
