Congresswoman Lee Responds to Presidential Address to Congress

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Susie Lee (NV-03) released the following statement in response to President Trump’s address to Congress: 

“I listened to the President for two hours and not once did I hear a plan to lower the cost of living for Nevada families. 

“His new tariffs are increasing costs across the board and his budget proposal will take away health care for millions to provide tax breaks for billionaires and big corporations. When he says, “There will be a little disturbance,” be clear, the pain will be felt by the middle class.  

“I support his strong border policies. I support the pressure he has placed on Europe to increase investment in their own defense. I support making government more efficient. So, I’m willing to work with Republicans.  

“I’m ready to work with them to actually make life more affordable for Nevadans.”
