Rep. Steven Horsford, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Nevada’s 4th district, has been actively engaging with his community through various initiatives and discussions. In a series of tweets, he shared insights into his work and the issues affecting his constituents.
On June 20, 2025, Rep. Horsford reflected on his recent district work week by emphasizing the core principles of public service: “listening, learning, and lifting up the voices of the people I’m honored to serve.” He expressed pride in efforts ranging from honoring cultural heritage to defending healthcare and education “Every visit, conversation, and roundtable this district work week reminded me what public service is all about…”
The following day, on June 21, 2025, he addressed a personal issue that continues to drive his legislative agenda—gun violence. Rep. Horsford shared a poignant memory of losing his father to gun violence when he was 19 years old in the same community he now serves: “Gun violence took my dad when I was 19—in the same community I now serve.” He highlighted meetings with law enforcement and health leaders as part of efforts to #BreakTheCycle.
Later that day, Rep. Horsford voiced concerns over proposed legislation by Republicans that could significantly impact healthcare access: “The Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill would rip health care from 16 million Americans.” He underscored potential repercussions for Nevada residents where one in three could lose coverage.
Steven Horsford has represented Nevada’s 4th District since replacing Ruben Kihuen in 2019. His background includes serving in the Nevada Senate from 2009 to 2013 and earning a BA from the University of Nevada, Reno.
