Rep. Steven Horsford, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Nevada’s 4th district, has recently shared a series of tweets addressing concerns about media freedom, legal actions against political opponents, and changes to policies affecting transgender individuals and immigration. His comments reflect ongoing debates over democratic norms and civil rights in the United States.
On March 5, 2025, Rep. Horsford tweeted about escalating attacks on the media. He noted that there have been "escalated attacks on the media, labeling critical outlets as 'enemies of the people' and restricting press access to certain events." He also highlighted threats of legal action against political opponents and critics, raising issues concerning freedom of speech and democratic norms.
In another tweet on the same day, he addressed policy changes impacting transgender individuals. He stated that protections for transgender individuals were being rolled back by "rescinding guidelines allowing transgender students to use bathrooms matching their gender identity."
Continuing his commentary on policy changes, Rep. Horsford pointed out stricter immigration measures being implemented. According to him, these include "expanded travel bans affecting several predominantly Muslim countries," which is part of broader immigration policy reforms.
