Susie Lee U.S. House of Representatives from Nevada's 3rd district | Official U.S. House Headshot
Congresswoman Susie Lee, representing Nevada’s 3rd District in the U.S. Congress, addressed several issues concerning women's rights, fiscal policy, and senior citizen protection through a series of tweets earlier this month. Lee, who has been serving since 2019, is noted for her active participation in legislative matters, particularly those involving social welfare concerns.
On April 10, 2025, Congresswoman Lee expressed her views on the SAVE Act, criticizing it as "another attack on women’s rights and American’s constitutional right to vote." In her tweet, dated 17:13 UTC, she argued that the legislation, under the guise of election protection, would prevent individuals who have changed their names from using their birth certificates as proof of citizenship. Lee highlighted that this directly impacts married women who have altered their surnames.
Later on the same day, at 20:08 UTC, Lee voiced her opposition to a budget resolution passed by Republicans. In her tweet, she warned constituents, "Don’t be fooled by this budget resolution" as it aims to "cut Medicaid for millions, food assistance for seniors, and services for children with disabilities." Lee further accused the resolution of offering tax breaks to "billionaires and big corporations," resulting in negative implications for essential public services.
On April 11, 2025, Lee turned her focus toward protecting seniors against financial exploitation. In a tweet posted at 23:08 UTC, she revealed that seniors lost $12.5 billion in scams and fraud in 2024, noting that Nevada leads the nation in rates of financial fraud per capita. Lee hosted a Senior Scam Protection Presentation in collaboration with local law enforcement and legal organizations in Southern Nevada to safeguard vulnerable sections from financial crimes.
Susie Lee remains a dedicated advocate for the citizens of Nevada's 3rd district, which she has represented since she succeeded Jacky Rosen in 2019. Born in Canton, Ohio, Lee resides in Las Vegas and holds a degree from Carnegie Mellon University.
