Nobody is prouder of our Nevada Congressional District than me. Thank you for the honor. Every achievement worth doing began with listening to Nevadans and fighting for our values. I came to Congress to solve problems and to make sure our State and Nation have strong voice in the federal policy and oversight processes. I look forward to finishing my term. After 15 years of service, I believe it is the right time for Nevada and myself to pass the torch."

The Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) have decided to officially end the I-11 (formerly I-515)/US 95/US 93 National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) study between Rancho Drive and Mojave Road, referred to as the Downtown Access Project. The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is being cancelled due to the overall impacts to the adjacent communities and lack of financial resources to support the anticipated cost of construction. Any future transportation improvements along I-11/US 95/US 93 between Rancho Drive and Mojave Road will progress under a separate environmental review process, in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations.
