Sen. Jacky Rosen on Bipartisanship and Bean Salad
Before 2016, not a lot of Nevadans knew the name Jacky Rosen. But today, she’s finishing up her first 6-year term as one of our United States Senators.

Today on City Cast Las Vegas, co-host Dayvid Figler interviews Senator Jacky Rosen about how life in Las Vegas, from her summer as a cocktail waitress to her role as a synagogue president, shaped the trajectory of her life — and (spoiler alert) we learn how her family’s story is intimately connected to that of a certain local podcast host…!
