Representative Steven Horsford, currently serving Nevada’s 4th congressional district, shared several remarks on political developments via social media in early April 2025. Horsford, who succeeded Ruben Kihuen in 2019 and previously served in the Nevada Senate from 2009 to 2013, has often been vocal about national issues affecting his constituents.
On April 8, 2025, Horsford criticized former President Donald Trump’s handling of economic promises, stating: “Trump said he would focus on lowering costs on day one. He lied and the people of NV-04 are paying the price. @SpeakerJohnson owes them answers. @LeaderJeffries called on him to debate because the American people deserve answers – and the truth. Let’s go. Anytime. Anywhere.” This commentary suggests a demand for accountability and transparency from political leaders overseeing economic policies.
The following day, April 9, Horsford reached out to his constituents regarding local concerns: “Don’t forget to join me tonight! I want to hear from YOU about how you’re fairing in this difficult housing market. RSVP Here: https://t.co/IqTUh9rgkO” This tweet indicates Horsford’s initiative to engage directly with citizens about pressing issues like the challenging housing market.
Later on the same day, Horsford expressed disapproval of the Trump administration’s trade policy decision during a congressional testimony: “What it looks like when you’re the country’s trade representative testifying before Congress and you find out Trump changed his mind on tariffs. This is reckless governing. There is no strategy and it’s obvious this is amateur hour.” His statement underscores concerns about consistency and strategic planning within the federal administration’s trade actions.
