LAS VEGAS, NV – Sam Brown convincingly demonstrated the policy differences between himself and Jacky Rosen tonight in a clear debate victory. After the debate, AFP Action is highlighting key takeaways:

• Senator Rosen has failed to secure the southern border and Nevada. Sam Brown will fight for increased technology, boots on the ground and infrastructure along the southern border.
• Rosen backed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which did not lower inflation. Instead, the IRA has resulted in U.S. gas prices increasing by nearly 62%, natural gas prices spiking by more than 40 percent, and included a $250-billion-dollar Department of Energy Loan Guarantee Program to fund liberal pet projects. 
• In the debate, Rosen desperately tried to distance herself from the economic failures of the Biden-Harris administration, but she has voted with the president 93% of the time.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Ronnie Najarro released the following statement:

“Tonight, Nevadans heard from two candidates with very different visions for Nevada’s future.  Jacky Rosen was for all the big government spending that caused the inflation that has harmed Nevada’s economy.  Sam Brown is for common sense: making life more affordable, restoring order to our border, and keeping taxes low.”

LAS VEGAS, NV – Tonight, Jacky Rosen tried to make Nevadans believe she and her party have been strong about securing our southern border, the facts tell another story.  The failure of Biden-Harris and Rosen to secure the border has pushed our resources to the brink, contributing to a crisis at the southern border. Agents are understaffed and in need of increased technology – yet Rosen continued for six years to vote against policies that would strengthen American border security.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Ronnie Najarro released the following statement:

“Nevadans are troubled about the lack of order and security on the U.S.-Mexico border. They know it is wide open and have seen the deaths caused by the fentanyl our open border allows. But every time Jacky Rosen had an opportunity to do something about it, she instead kowtowed to party bosses and did nothing.  Sam Brown will defend our borders and keep Nevadans safe.”

LAS VEGAS, NV – In tonight’s debate when asked about energy policy, Jacky Rosen attempted to confuse Nevadans about her votes that have caused gas and energy prices to skyrocket.  

Jacky Rosen backed the so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) which was actually a green new deal spending monstrosity. Instead of lowering inflation, the IRA has resulted in U.S. gas prices increasing by nearly 62%, natural gas prices spiking by more than 40%, and for good measure included a $250-billion-dollar Department of Energy Loan Guarantee Program to fund liberal pet projects.

Jacky Rosen and the Biden-Harris administration have been hostile to American energy. In the Senate, Sam Brown will support energy policies that prioritize American energy jobs and protect consumers. Brown will help empower Nevada’s energy industry and reignite American energy independence.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Ronnie Najarro released the following statement:

“There is a stark contrast in energy policy between Jacky Rosen and Sam Brown. Brown’s America-first policies prioritize Nevada jobs and consumers while Rosen has rubberstamped the misguided policies of the Biden-Harris administration. Under Rosen, costs have increased dramatically and it’s time for new leadership in Washington.”

LAS VEGAS, NV – In tonight’s debate, Jacky Rosen attempted to confuse voters about her economic record after six years representing them in Washington, DC but Nevadans were not fooled. They know why they are struggling to make ends meet amid record inflation and a cost-of-living crisis, Bidenomics policies that Rosen voted for every step of the way.

Rosen backed the massive spending that led to 40-year high inflation, including the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), which did not lower inflation, it poured gasoline on the inflation fire Bidenomics created with even more reckless spending.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Ronnie Najarro released the following statement:

“Nevadans are hurting under Jacky Rosen’s watch and her lockstep support of Bidenomics has raised the cost of living to unbearable levels for too many Nevada households. Rosen was the tie-breaking vote in the Senate for all of the inflationary policies of the Biden-Harris administration and Nevadans see the results every time they go to the store.”
