Addressing issues of political fairness at 14:01 UTC, Horsford commented on accountability within government leadership: “Donald Trump and Republicans keep protecting the powerful while hardworking Americans pay the price.
When accountability is blocked for political insiders, it sends a clear message: there are two sets of rules, one for the wealthy and well-connected, and another for everyone”.
Horsford has represented Nevada’s 4th District since replacing Ruben Kihuen in Congress in 2019. Prior to his current role in Congress, he served in the Nevada Senate from 2009 to 2013. Born in Las Vegas in 1973 and currently residing there at age 49, Horsford earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Nevada, Reno in 2014.
