Congresswoman Susie Lee Protecting Nevada’s Water

No one knows better than a Nevadan just how precious our water resources are. That’s why since coming to Congress, Congresswoman Susie Lee (NV-03) has made it a top priority to protect our water and secure water infrastructure investments across southern Nevada.  

Congresswoman Lee secured a $20 million investment for the Lake Mead Las Vegas Wash program, made possible by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law which she helped negotiate and pass; introduced legislation to protect our water supply; and delivered nearly $123 million in 2023 for local water projects.
