Jacky has been a committed and steadfast ally to Tribal Nations nationally and here in Nevada, which is home to 28 federally recognized Tribes, Bands, and Colonies. She has delivered critical funding to provide more affordable housing, high-speed internet, improved roads and bridges, and updated energy infrastructure for Tribal communities across the country.
In 2024, Jacky successfully secured more than $10 million in federal funds for nearly a dozen different community projects that will benefit Tribes across Nevada, ranging from building a new community center for the Duckwater Shoshone Tribe, to providing law enforcement equipment for the Reno-Sparks Indian Colony, to investing in key water infrastructure needs for the Pyramid Lake and Walker River Paiute Tribes.
This year, Jacky also secured more than $1.3 billion in federal funding for housing in Tribal communities, including for the Indian Housing Block Grant program. She is also calling on the federal government to increase Tribal access to mental health programs and make these services more culturally competent and inclusive. When it comes to protecting sacred lands that are of great cultural significance to Tribal Nations, Jacky has been a strong supporter of the Avi Kwa Ame National Monument in Southern Nevada and supports the creation of a new Bahsahwahbee National Monument in Eastern Nevada. Additionally, Jacky is proud to have fought alongside Tribal leaders for the return of land to Tribal Nations through legislation such as her Washoe County Lands Bill.
