Nevada Dems Stayed Seated as NRCC Unloads New Ad Blitz
By TheNevadaGlobeStaff, March 22, 2026 11:04 am
The National Republican Congressional Committee is launching a paid ad campaign targeting Nevada Democrats Dina Titus, Susie Lee, and Steven Horsford, seizing on a moment Republicans say defines where their priorities lie.
The ad centers on a scene in Congress where President Donald J. Trump challenged lawmakers to stand if they believed protecting American citizens should come before illegal immigrants.
Republicans stood. Nevada Democrats did not.
The footage is now being weaponized in a statewide push to tie Titus, Lee, and Horsford to what Republicans call a clear refusal to stand with American citizens.
The spot is blunt. It is simple. And it is designed to stick.
Democrats had a chance to stand up for Americans.
American citizens. American taxpayers. American children.
They stayed seated. Not quietly. Not accidentally. Deliberately.
The ad frames the moment as a defining test of priorities, arguing that when given a direct choice, Democrats signaled exactly where they stand.
“Dina Titus, Susie Lee, and Steven Horsford stayed glued to their seats when they had the easiest choice in the world. Stand for American citizens or side with criminal illegal immigrants. Nevada voters are going to remember exactly what they did,” said NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez.
The escalation comes as immigration and public safety continue to dominate the political landscape in Nevada, a battleground where small shifts in voter sentiment can decide elections.
Republicans see the moment as politically potent. Visual. Memorable. Easy to understand.
Stand up for Americans. Or don’t.
The NRCC is betting that voters will not forget which side Titus, Lee, and Horsford chose.
In a state where frustration over cost of living and border security is already running high, the message is calibrated to cut through the noise and land with force.
And this time, the image says it all.
