Senator Cortez Masto is a fierce advocate for Nevada’s tourism economy, fighting for transparency and working to support the state through the current economic chaos. On multiple occasions throughout 2025, the Senator raised concerns and demanded the Trump Administration consider and reverse their detrimental policies and make constructive plans for strengthening travel and tourism in the U.S. Overall, Cortez Masto is seeking economic analysis from the Trump Administration and Congress on the impacts of reduced tourism to the economy nationwide. In September, she hosted a press conference with the Culinary Union to call out Trump Administration policies that are slowing travel and tourism in Nevada. She has led legislation to bolster Nevada’s legal sports betting industry, remove tariffs on key goods, and ensure that the no taxes on tips policy best serves Nevada workers.
