If you can win in Nevada as a Democrat, you can win in the rest of the country. Nevada Democrats have to be pragmatic. They have to pay attention to working-class, kitchen-table issues. You’re just not going to win in Nevada without that. washingtonsun.com/campaigns/…

Workers are living through what we call the #TrumpSlump & it’s showing up in their hours & paychecks. This admin’s chaotic trade & immigration policies have put a serious chill on tourism. That means fewer hours, less tips, & hard convos at kitchen tables. xitter.cf/semafor/status/2105410…
Visitors to the US are on track to drop by almost two million year-on-year. “We’re the only major country in the world losing visitation,” the head of the US Travel Association said. “It’s mind-boggling.” semafor.com/article/09/29/20…

Trump’s policies have driven up the cost of living for working families, from skyrocketing gas prices and grocery bills to rising housing costs, and the economic impacts driving up costs from Trump’s illegal war with Iran. Working families need relief. 8newsnow.com/news/local-news…

Why didn’t Nevada cap prescription drug prices like other places do? On May 27, 2025, State Assemblymember Dr. Edgeworth voted to let drug companies charge any price they want. Wonder why? Vote JoeSpicaAD35 for Assembly District 35!

Culinary Union is proud to participate in the 2026 Las Vegas Pride Parade. @Culinary226 , through the Culinary Health Fund, was the first to recognize & provide benefits to same-sex domestic partners in 1997 in Nevada, 17 years before gay marriage was legal in the state.

As a result of Trump’s tariffs, & immigration policies, LV suffered a decline in total visitors of 7.5% in 2025, the worst in a non-pandemic year. Lower visitation means fewer visitors spending money & that leads to fewer shifts & tips for workers. 8newsnow.com/news/local-news…

Nevada is in the #TrumpSlump. Trump’s tariffs, chaotic immigration policy, the war in Iran, & high grocery & gas prices are hurting working families & driving away the Canadian, Mexican, Southern California, and international tourism Nevada depends on. thedailybeast.com/allies-ref…

.@StationCasinos has done everything it can to block workers from exercising their right to a union contract. We stand with Station Casinos workers who are organizing and we won’t stop fighting until we win strong union contract. xitter.cf/Culinary226/status/210…
“Having a union contract at @StationCasinos gives [workers the opportunity to] take care of [their] families, a better life, a better pension, and everything that goes in that contract,” - Casiano, a casino porter at Palace Station. 📰 FOX 5 News: fox5vegas.com/2026/09/24/las…

We call on US Senate to pass Faster Labor Contracts Act, bipartisan legislation that would guarantee workers who vote to form a union a first contract without years of delay. For 17 years, @stationcasinos has done everything it can to block workers from getting a union contract.

We applaud @SenBooker & @SenCortezMasto for their continued leadership & urge the swift passage of the Faster Labor Contracts Act. This legislation is needed because it puts real timelines & consequences on bad employers who stall. We stand w/@stationcasinos workers.

Workers at @StationCasinos won union through NLRB elections & yet they’ve been dragged through endless delays, appeals, & bad-faith tactics by company. @Culinary226 & #StationCasinos’ workers demand justice, applaud @SenBooker & @SenCortezMasto for their continued leadership.
