Jacky is fighting every day to support Nevada’s law enforcement agencies and keep our communities safe from crime. She has helped secure millions of dollars for Nevada’s police departments to address staffing shortages, improve training practices, and provide critical equipment upgrades. These investments are helping build a new state-of-the-art training center for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, support mental health initiatives for Reno and Henderson police officers, and fund crucial technology for rural police departments. Jacky also broke with her party by voting for a resolution to block a D.C. law that would weaken the power of law enforcement officers to respond to crime, and now she’s working to pass a bipartisan plan to help police departments across Nevada hire and retain new officers at a time when law enforcement agencies are facing dire staffing shortages.
One of the toughest issues facing law enforcement right now is fentanyl. When it comes to border security, Jacky has voted to deliver billions of dollars in resources, including for new technology and more Border Patrol agents. Her bipartisan law to crack down on drug smuggling and help law enforcement stop fentanyl at the border was signed into law this year.
Jacky is also working to ensure Nevada firefighters have the resources they need and deserve. She helped pass the Fire Grants and Safety Act to ensure firefighters in Nevada and nationwide hire additional firefighters and purchase lifesaving equipment. She also secured a historic pay raise and benefits funding for federal wildland firefighters through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and she helped introduce legislation to permanently raise the caps on overtime premium pay for federal wildland firefighters. She has secured millions of dollars for Nevada firefighters, including $3.75 million to rebuild Storey County fire station and $2 million to construct an emergency operations center and fire station for Carson City. Jacky is also the lead champion in the Senate for the Helping Emergency Responders Overcome (HERO) Act, which would help provide greater mental health resources and support for first responders.
