Jacky Rosen Secures Nevada Senate Seat in Pivotal 2024 Election

Democratic Senator Jacky Rosen has been re-elected in Nevada, defeating Republican Sam Brown in a closely contested race.

Despite Brown's support from Donald Trump and a strong early GOP showing, he was outspent and unable to overcome Rosen's campaign.

"Nevada Senate Race Reaches Toss-Up as Record Ad Buy Shifts Dynamics"

Nevada Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen has reserved a record-breaking $14 million for ads in anticipation of a tough Senate race, following a shift in the race's rating to "Toss Up" by the Cook Political Report. Her Republican opponents are in a crowded primary, and the ad reservation surpasses the previous record set by Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto. Despite touting bipartisanship, Rosen's voting record aligns closely with President Biden. Political advertising spending in Nevada is historically high, with the 2022 Senate race being the third most expensive in the country. Former U.S. Army Capt. Sam Brown is the frontrunner among Republican candidates seeking the Senate nomination.

Senate Democrats and Republicans unite to demand Biden refreeze $6B in Iranian assets amidst rising tensions with Hamas

Five Senate Democrats, including Joe Manchin, Jon Tester, Jacky Rosen, Tammy Baldwin, and Bob Casey, are joining congressional Republicans in demanding that President Biden reinstate a freeze on $6 billion worth of Iranian assets that were unfrozen as part of a prisoner swap. They argue that the funds should remain frozen until it can be determined whether Iran played a role in recent terrorist attacks and to hold Iran accountable for its support of Hamas. The Biden administration has insisted that the money would only be used for humanitarian purposes, but critics argue that it could free up funds for Iran to support terrorist proxies in the Middle East.
