Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1166.164

Yeah, thank you for asking. So the Mod Squad is an— Which is just a great name, by the way. It is.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1177.268

I hate to say this, but in my age, it reminds me of the old show Mod Squad. So I'm trying to bring it up. If you're around my age, everybody starts talking about the actors and actresses from the old show. And I said, no, no, it's not that. It's a little something different. But here's what really the focus is for moderate Democrats like me from swing states.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1196.133

The goal here is to really focus on how we elevate the voices of those constituents, of those Americans who are there, who are usually not heard because they're I just say in mainstream media, usually you hear from the far left and the far right, but you don't hear a lot about the moderates because the moderates are just, we're common sense. Let's solve the problems. Let's get it done.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1218.939

Let's talk to our constituents. Let's move forward. Now the goal is with the support of ModSquad, which is an organization that encourages really moderate senators to work together to amplify the voices of

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

122.597

Oh, Jessica, it's great to join you. Okay, now, I don't want to offend you because this is your show. Okay. Let me just say one thing. It's Nevada, not Nevada. Oh, my God, I'm so sorry. My Nevadans, if I didn't correct you and they were listening to this, they would... They'd turn it... I would never be able to go back.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1232.965

of not just the senators, but the people that we represent back home to convene us around policy issues that are common sense, that we can work across the aisle with some of our Republican colleagues to solve problems. That's really what it's about. And that's why I am pleased to kind of step up as the honorary chair

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1251.658

But there's about 20 of my colleagues that are a part of this, including Ruben Gallego and Alyssa Slotkin. We've got Gene Shaheen, Mark Warner. So if you would think about the Senate and the moderates that are in the Senate, pretty much those senators, those are the ones that are really the voices we're trying to amplify more of.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1320.724

Yeah, it's a great question. And one of the if we want an indicator, right, like you said, winning is an indicator. Well, if you look back at the last election. Actually, moderates. We outperformed. And if you look at the seven swing states of the senators and governors out of the 21 positions, we won, what, 15 of them. So moderates outperform in these states. And that's a winning indicator.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1344.724

But the other side to that is just in general, people need to understand, I think there's more moderates. across the country that are looking for this common sense. Let's just work together. Let's find solutions. Let's make sure everybody else's life's better. How do we work towards that goal? And let me just give you a perfect example. I was coming home. I was in the Reno airport.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1366.483

And I was actually leaving Reno and heading to Las Vegas. And a constituent saw me, said, hey, Senator, Senator, is that you? And I said, yeah, how are you? And he said, I just want you to know I'm one of your constituents and I support you. But I'm also one of your constituents that voted for Donald Trump, but also voted for Jackie Rosen. And that is not unusual in swing states like ours, right?

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1390.186

And so those are the type of, and that's what he said, I just want everybody to work together. I just want the common sense, solve problems. How do we move forward? And that really is where I'm coming from in a lot of our moderates. And that's why our voices need to be heard because it's a whole constituency that is out there that just wants people to solve problems at the end of the day.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

142.502

Nevada, that's it.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1452.046

Yeah, I would say don't confuse the ability and the willingness to work across the aisle and find common sense solutions with the idea that somehow we are not outraged and willing to fight back and push back and take action when necessary. Listen, I am... an attorney by trade. I was an attorney general fighting for people and their rights.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1474.23

And at the end of the day, what is happening to women's rights across the country is just outrageous to me. And the fact that women have lesser rights now than they did 50 years, for the last 50 years. It's crazy. And the fact that they are taking away essential programs that we need in healthcare and mental health.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1495.698

Let me just say, I've been a senator that have fought for mental health resources in my state for the last six years. And we brought in over a billion dollars from the federal government across the country and millions of dollars into Nevada to address mental health challenges that we were seeing because of COVID-19 and even before of COVID-19. And this administration has cut those programs.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1517.847

I mean, it's just crazy to me. I fought for peer counseling programs. And so to me, that's why the outrage is absolutely there. But part of this is I know I have to be strategic and smart about my fights and taking them on. The big ones are key. Mental health to me is key. Women's rights, that's key. Rule of law, absolutely. I'm not going to back down.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1537.719

And that's why even in the oversight hearings when RFK Jr. came before me, I was taking him on. There's no way. This guy has no... no reason, no experience, and he should not be in that position. He has no idea what he is doing, and he is harming people at the end of the day.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1553.51

So now my goal is going to be to show how he continues to harm people and to show what this administration, how they truly care about people or don't based on who they appoint to these positions. And that is part of my role as a senator. But it doesn't mean I'm not going to go back to my state and work on behalf of everyone for that greater good.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1571.983

and solve problems, and make sure I'm talking to everyone, whether they voted for me or not. Because it is true. You know, it's an old axiom, but, you know, that rising tide lifts all boats. That's what this is about for me in my state. I'm third generation. I love Nevada, and I will continue to fight for it. So I pick my battles, but don't... No, I've seen you. You went viral during that hearing.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1596.421

Take on that challenge. Trust me.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1647.487

No, I think Elon's achieved his goal here, and it's going to continue. I think we don't know the full extent of what he has done and the access to personal information of Americans that they have received. collated and put together in a database.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1659.558

We don't know and we won't uncover that until after this administration because this administration is still protecting him and they will continue to do so. That's why it is important moving forward as we look at our oversight role in demanding answers

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

166.36

Well, I can tell you, it's the economy. It absolutely is about the economy for people in Nevada. I was home just recently. I'm back in D.C. working now, but I was home for two weeks. I was in the northern part of the state, the southern part of the state, our rural communities. It's about the economy.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1673.769

and questioning them and what's happening and having shadow hearings and highlighting what is going on when we find out and keeping that pressure on this administration. I think it is so important. The administration would like nothing for... Literally, would like us as Democrats to act as Republicans are acting right now and just give it all away and just, you know, be a rubber stamp.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1694.775

There's no way in hell I'm going to be a rubber stamp. I will never be. And that's the important part of moving forward in Congress as we challenge this administration on the bad things that they are doing. Let me highlight something that, again, is a rage for me. I come from a Western state. We are having wildfires in the West that are lasting now longer than they traditionally did.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1718.582

It would usually be a month, maybe a couple of months, a season. They're now happening all year long. And we need resources to fight those fires, not only for the prevention of those fires, but the suppression and remediation. My colleagues and I, in a bipartisan way, we put almost about $8 billion into Western wildfire support.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1738.539

This administration just recently has come along, has eliminated all of that funding that went to reduce the fuels for those fires, the contractors that were out there reducing the fuels for those fires, eliminated the positions for the wildfire firefighters, and has put stop orders on a number of things.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1758.741

So I can guarantee you, and I can tell you right now after talking to some of my folks at home, everybody's in a panic mode about the next wildfire season and how devastating it may be, not just to our rural communities, but to our urban areas as well. That's the challenge we have is getting this administration

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1778.76

to understand the real impacts that they're having when they're making decisions in Washington, D.C., and that it is going to cost people's lives and their homes. And it really requires that conversation to take place. And for me, that means my Republican colleagues need to step up, some of them. Can't be a rubber stamp on this. We need to step up. They need to be there as well.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1799.888

Pushing back in a bipartisan way is so important in this administration. Standing up for this branch of government, as you well know, First branch of government, checks and balances are so important. And we've got to fight for that. We've got to fight for that moving forward in this Congress. But Jessica, you know, you said it.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1817.817

It is a challenge with some of my Republicans right now who are afraid of retribution.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

183.295

And people feeling squeezed right now with high prices still, household costs still high, groceries prices still high, including our small businesses who are struggling financially. Right? I had an opportunity to sit down and have several roundtables with some of our small businesses and visit with them. And they're afraid that they won't be able to keep their doors open much longer.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1856.655

Well, I will tell you the mental health piece is just so important. I think people aren't realizing the impact that this administration is having on undoing all of the resources we put out there around mental health. But by the way, there are gaps in services we need to do so much more.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1872.918

But he's taking away even the smaller gains that we have made around mental health services for our seniors, for our kids, for so many that need it right now. And That to me is just my fight moving forward because I know so many of my colleagues in the past, Debbie Stabenow was one of them. She's since retired, that fought for mental health services.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1893.468

Roy Blunt, who is retired, fought for mental health services. And now that's all going away. So that to me is worth the fight here and continuing to push back. And then in general, people just need to be calling down about the disagreements among Democrats, right? We're going to have disagreements. That's just the nature of the party that we have that you and I have just defined.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1916.282

But at the end of the day, the unity is around this administration's abuse of power and stopping it and their overreach of federal government. And our focus should also be, as a priority, how we protect and fight for those hardworking Americans at the end of the day. That, to me, is very simple.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1940.968

Did I do it? Yes. This is bad.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

1958.991

Thank you. It's great to join you.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

202.597

It is a challenge right now, and it's unfortunate because this is a president who said on day one, if you remember, I think he was in Oseman, Montana, when he said, we're going to lower costs. On day one, I'm going to lower costs for families across this country. And that is not what's happening right now. Because of his policies, we're just seeing this economy, really, it's almost in free fall.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

225.126

And American families and hardworking families and small businesses are suffering because of it right now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

261.07

That's right.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

275.402

Yeah, so let me jump back just because you bring up a great point. Going into this year, the economy was growing, right? We were expanding. Our economy was expanding. We had good unemployment numbers. We're down. People didn't feel great. I mean, we still had to address the household costs and other things, but we focused on some, lowering some health care costs, and the economy looked good.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

297.446

And you're right. This administration also had to do and take the bones and continue moving forward and be targeted. about how they wanted to address shrinking the government, how they wanted to address maybe addressing some of the waste, fraud, and abuse that is out there, and how they want to impose tariffs. There's a great way to target tariffs. And let me just give you a perfect example.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

320.459

In Nevada, if you come to Nevada, and I've worked really hard to do this, to make sure that we can lean into this clean energy economy, because it has created jobs in my state, union jobs, which are fantastic. We've leaned into solar, wind, and geothermal. One thing we have leaned into, though, was lithium-ion batteries, manufacturing, recycling, and then storage around batteries.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

343.758

All of that research, all of the dollars that came into my state when the federal government And the work that we have done from Inflation Reduction Act to Chips and Science Act, all of those laws that we pass, including the bipartisan infrastructure, brought that money in to move us in a direction so we are leading in this country around that technology. It is great, and we should continue.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

366.895

And all he had to do is step in and continue to move in that direction. But already, because he doesn't like electric vehicles... He is already cutting the funding to some of even the battery manufacturing and the battery storage. And that is the problem, is why aren't we targeted? Because I know in the last administration, working with them, we targeted China so that they couldn't

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

388.982

take advantage of the battery manufacturing in their country, and we could bring it back here to the United States. That's where the tariffs worked. We want to protect our jobs here. We want to bring manufacturing in this space and the new technology. That's how you use targeted tariffs. When you do blanket tariffs,

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

404.44

Too many people suffer, including our small businesses that are suffering right now. And at the end of the day, you know this, a tariff is a tax ultimately on consumers. And as I was talking to my small businesses, because they're seeing the higher costs, they have to make a choice. Can they keep their doors open or do they pass that cost on to the American consumer?

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

424.956

And too many are going to be passing the cost off, quite honestly, because they want to stay open. They are providing an essential service and employing people in the community. It's this cycle where everybody's getting wrapped up into this chaos and uncertainty that this administration is imposing based on the policies that they're implementing right now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

444.097

And it's just having a devastating impact in Nevada.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

493.38

Well, let's talk about its partisan spite and retribution. Don't forget, there's a lot of retribution in this. Certainly with him. Yeah, and as a former attorney general in my state who respects the rule of law and that law should be nonpartisan and not be part of a political retribution, he is doing that now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

510.287

So, yes, there is a concern about how he is and his policies in total are going to have a negative impact long term, not just around the economy, around our rule of law, around the essential services that really at the end of the day people are relying on. Here's the fascinating thing, Jessica, and I know in my state, most people don't even know what the federal government does for them.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

533.426

They really don't until there is a service or essential program that they rely on or benefit that is taken away. Otherwise, they really don't understand how complex it is. Now, I'll be the first to tell you, is there too much bureaucracy? Is there too much regulation? Is there a way that we can streamline it? Absolutely. We have to. And I've seen it.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

553.319

That's my fight at the federal government is to get rid of some of the bureaucracy and streamline. But there's a smart and targeted way to do it in a thoughtful way that doesn't burn down the entire house and break everything. And so that's what we have right now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

569.233

And because that is happening, I am seeing in my state, listen, Susan Collins and I, when I first got to the Senate, fought for federal dollars for Alzheimer's research. And then together we passed legislation called the BOLD Act to continue to incorporate and identify centers for excellence around that research and support for caregivers for Alzheimer's.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

593.539

Under this administration, they just eliminated the entire program and all the funding with it. I mean, it just does not make sense. And there's too many people that are suffering because of it. And that's why what is happening here, I see and feel in my state, and I'm a swing state. People in my state voted for Donald Trump. But they're feeling, they're hurting right now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

614.907

And they just want people to come together in a common sense way and actually solve problems that they're dealing with and not add to it.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

660.786

Yeah, I can say if you were just talking about the Democrats, I think everybody in the Democrat, they're so we're so diverse in the sense that we have the left side of the party and the moderates. I'm a moderate and moderates. Right. And there's going to be enough room for all of us.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

675.859

to reach out to our voters, to reach out to constituents in my state, my swing voters, everybody that is suffering, to talk to them. And it may look differently, right? For me, it is going home and actually meeting people where they live. and talking to them, or going on local podcasts.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

695.943

We have a local Filipino podcast that I just was on because we have a large Filipino population in Nevada, and talking to that community. For me, it's going and showing up, including in our rural communities, where I know they voted for Donald Trump, but engaging. And it's not just showing up at the time of election. It's always showing up. And then following up.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

718.317

And then working with them on solutions and solving problems that they deal with and bringing them into the conversation. So my Nevadans, constituents, I pull them into conversations all the time. Perfect example. Chuck Grassley and I are working on a piece of legislation to address xylosine that is being cut with fentanyl right now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

738.034

and to give law enforcement the tools they need to hold those traffickers accountable. Xylazine is an important drug for our veterinarians. First people that I went to in my state are veterinarians.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

747.676

Cattlemen's Association, our farmers and ranchers, they're in our rural part of the state to say, hey, how do we pass legislation that doesn't impede your access to this drug, but at the same time we can hold those who are utilizing in an illicit manner, hold them accountable. That's how we do it. You get out and you talk to everyone.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

766.001

And I think that's going to be important for many of my colleagues to understand. Listen, we don't have a president right now. We don't have a leader of the Democratic Party. And we didn't in 2018. Remember, we didn't in 2018 and we still won. Right? So the point is we all have a role to play. There is so much happening, Jessica, right now.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

785.999

In the first 100 days, oh, my gosh, this has been overloaded by this. Like years. Yeah. My gosh. And I tell people it's only been 100 days. And it's just been overloaded by this administration because they had a plan going in. And so there's a lot for us to do, but we have to be doing it. We have to use our oversight role in Congress.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

805.504

We have to push back where we can in that oversight role and shine a light for the American public on what is going on because most people don't know, particularly an administration that would prefer to do this all in the dark of night. When he fired all of the inspector generals, it was in the middle of the night. Nobody knew.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

824.537

So part of this is, no, we got to make sure the public knows what's happening. And then we got to show up and talk to them. You know, I just I can't stress that enough. I know as a swing state senator that they expect that kind of conversation and that understanding. And I think that's where as Democrats, there's enough room for all of us.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

842.866

And we all got to figure out how we engage and shine a light on what is happening. And then finally, let me just say this, Jessica. We are all going to be united around two things, fighting for our hardworking Americans, but at the same time pushing back against this administration that wants too much power and is engaging in government, federal government overreach.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

865.924

I think there's a commonality for Democrats in that sense, and we've got to stay focused on what we're trying to achieve.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

878.12

Yeah, I think they're just both important, what's happening right now. I don't think you can. That's the rub here. I think from many of my constituents, there are issues that they care about more than others, and I understand it. Some are more emotional about the state of our democracy. Some are more emotional about the loss of dollars to help mental health. This is my focus as well.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

902.038

So everybody's going to be emotional and fighting on an issue that matters to them. But as United States senators... representing the full state, we have to be fighting on all levels of it. And that's why our oversight is so important. And that's why what's happening in the courts, people don't even understand what's happening in the courts is just as important.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov

How To Make Centrism Sexy (feat. Sen. Cortez Masto)

921.108

People have no idea until I tell them. Right now, there are over 200 court cases that have been filed against this administration, including, like you said, from my state, from my attorney general, General Ford.

Raging Moderates with Scott Galloway and Jessica Tarlov
