The following were found on Rosen's campaign website.

“	Education Jacky knows we need better pay for our teachers and better funding to help improve Nevada’s struggling public schools. She supports efforts to rebuild crumbling or outdated public schools that serve low income families. A former computer programmer and software developer, Jacky has made promoting science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education a top priority. Her bipartisan education bills to help encourage young girls to pursue computer science and prioritize the learning and teaching of STEM subjects in early childhood passed the House unanimously. As the first in her family to graduate from college, Jacky believes in the power and opportunities education affords. She made ends meet in college by taking out student loans and working as a waitress. Today, students at Nevada universities graduate with an average of $24,000 in student loan debt; this keeps higher education out of reach for far too many. Jacky supports making higher education more affordable, whether it’s through advanced skills-training, apprenticeship programs, community college, or a four-year college degree. In the Senate, she’ll work to lower interest rates on student debt and ensure that young people have access to a quality education that prepares them for jobs in a 21st century economy. Energy & the Environment Nevada is home to stunning natural beauty. If we want to maintain Nevada’s natural heritage, Jacky believes we need to ensure our public lands are protected and remain accessible for generations to come. That’s why she’s fighting to protect our incredible National Monuments at Gold Butte and Basin and Range. The Trump Administration’s efforts to relicense the failed Yucca Mountain project represent a dire threat to our safety and our environment. In the Senate, Jacky will continue her work to ensure Nevada does not become a dumping ground for the rest of the nation’s nuclear waste. Jacky is committed to Nevada’s leadership on solar and other forms of renewable energy. As the former president of Nevada’s largest synagogue, Jacky led a team to build one of the largest solar projects by a nonprofit in the city of Henderson, cutting energy costs by up to 70 percent. That’s why she opposes the Trump Administration’s misguided efforts to drag us backwards and dismantle the Clean Power Plan. As the threat of climate change looms, she will continue advocating for action that reduces carbon pollution, defends our clean air and water, and promotes clean energy jobs. Because of her strong record supporting responsible environmental policies, Jacky has earned a 97% score from the League of Conservation Voters. Government Jacky is leading by example to reform how Washington works. Rosen ran her office so efficiently in 2017 that she returned a quarter-million dollars in unspent taxpayer money. Now she wants to stop Members of Congress from using your tax dollars for first-class flights, collecting a federal pension if they’re convicted of crimes like bribery or perjury, and paying out taxpayer-funded sexual harassment settlements. Jacky has been leading efforts to ban pork-barrel earmark spending and prevent Members of Congress from using taxpayer money to produce campaign-style, self-promotional mass mailings. Even if it means bucking her party, Jacky will always put Nevada taxpayers first. Reforming how Washington works also means fixing our broken campaign finance system. The Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision changed the landscape of our democracy, allowing billionaires and corporate special interests to pump unlimited amounts of money into our elections. Jacky supports a constitutional amendment to overturn this disastrous decision and return accountability to regular Nevadans. Health Care Jacky believes health care is a right, not a privilege, and she will always put Nevada’s families ahead of the politicians and special interests in Washington that want to cut our health care. Jacky will fight any effort to cut Medicare, and she will never support the reckless Republican health care plans that end protections for people with pre-existing conditions and allow insurance companies to charge older Americans thousands of dollars more. In Congress, Jacky introduced a resolution to defend the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act’s coverage protections for Americans with pre-existing conditions in federal court. Jacky knows our health care system has real problems that we need to work together to fix. That’s why she is working to develop bipartisan solutions to improve health care access and bring down costs by stabilizing the marketplaces, lowering premiums, and addressing Nevada’s doctor shortages. She signed on to and helped pass bipartisan legislation in the House to repeal the medical device tax. Jacky has also introduced forward-thinking legislation to cap the rising costs of life-saving prescription drugs and limit monthly out-of-pocket costs for individuals and families. Immigration Nevada’s immigrant families are part of the fabric of our communities. Jacky believes strongly in the need for comprehensive immigration reform that secures our borders, grows Nevada’s economy, and provides an earned path to citizenship. With families worried about being ripped apart, Jacky won’t stop fighting to find a solution that provides relief for the thousands of Dreamers and TPS recipients who call Nevada home. They are Americans in every way except for a piece of paper, and Jacky is working across the aisle to protect them and fix our broken immigration system. That’s why Jacky helped introduce bipartisan legislation - the United and Securing America (USA) Act - that provides a path to citizenship for Dreamers combined with smart, commonsense efforts to secure our borders. Jobs & the Economy No state was hit harder by the Great Recession than Nevada, from the housing crisis to skyrocketing unemployment. As our state finds its footing again and continues to grow, Jacky knows how important it is to diversify Nevada’s economy and build a more durable system that protects workers. Jacky knows that supporting Nevada’s business community is essential to our long-term future. Because of her pro-business voting record in 2017, Jacky was honored with the Spirit of Enterprise award from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Jacky is leading efforts to incentivize research and development hiring at tech startups that are driving innovation, and she supports fiscally responsible tax cuts for middle class families. With Nevada rapidly becoming a national leader in clean energy, Jacky is working to protect and grow Nevada’s solar industry which has created thousands of good-paying jobs across the state. She’s also fighting to protect Nevada’s legal marijuana businesses that are creating new jobs and millions in new tax revenue for the state budget. Jacky knows we should be investing more in vocational training and apprenticeship programs that will prepare Nevadans for high-tech and specialized jobs that require advanced skills. She also believes in expanding economic security for Nevada’s hardworking families by raising the minimum wage to a livable wage of $15 an hour and ensuring access to paid family and medical leave. Safety & Security Jacky believes smart and tough foreign policy is key to our national security. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, Jacky has taken steps to bolster the nation’s cybersecurity and get tougher on our adversaries like Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Jacky introduced and worked successfully to pass a bipartisan increase in investment for missile defense systems protecting our allies in Israel and to help secure the electric grid to ensure readiness at our key military installations. Ensuring our communities are safe is critically important to Jacky. After October 1, Jacky saw firsthand the horrific aftermath of the deadliest mass shooting in modern American history. The epidemic of gun violence in our country has become a public safety issue - it is not acceptable and it is not inevitable. In the Senate, Jacky will continue fighting for common-sense gun safety measures like expanding background checks, banning the sale of military-style assault weapons, prohibiting high-capacity magazines, and fully banning bump stocks. She will also build on her work in the House to ensure that Nevada’s communities and first responders get their fair share of federal homeland security funding so that we can keep our residents safe. Seniors Jacky stepped away from her career to take care of her aging parents and in-laws, giving her an intimate perspective on the challenges facing older Americans. Jacky will fight back against efforts to privatize or weaken Social Security, and she will oppose efforts to cut Medicare benefits or convert the program into a privatized voucher system. Jacky is committed to defending Social Security and Medicare, and she will work to find solutions that guarantee we keep our promises to our seniors. Jacky will never support the GOP’s reckless health care proposals that will allow insurance companies to charge older Americans thousands more. Veterans Jacky Rosen’s father was a World War II veteran, and she deeply respects the sacrifices our veterans have made to protect our country. With more than 200,000 veterans calling Nevada home, Jacky believes we need to do everything we can to take care of our veterans and military families. Jacky has stood up for veterans in Congress, and her office has brought more than $700,000 back to her district by helping veterans obtain their VA benefits. She has fought to improve veteran health care programs, raise the pay of servicemembers, combat veteran homelessness, and improve veterans’ access to child care. She helped introduce the Forever GI bill to expand college assistance for veterans and allow new servicemembers to use their education benefits later in life. Jacky worked across the aisle this year to introduce bipartisan pieces of legislation that will expand a tax credit to incentivize businesses to hire student veterans and provide specialized training to help transitioning servicemembers find jobs in the solar industry. In the Senate, Jacky will continue working with both parties to cut red tape and increase accountability at the VA to ensure we honor and fulfill our promises to Nevada’s veterans. Women's Issues Jacky has been a tireless advocate for women’s reproductive rights, which is why organizations like NARAL Pro-Choice America, EMILY’s List, and Planned Parenthood Action Fund have proudly endorsed her campaign. She is committed to protecting women’s health care and rights because she knows that these personal decisions are between a woman and her doctor—there’s no room for career politicians in Washington to get involved. Thousands of Nevada women rely on Planned Parenthood health centers for preventive services like birth control and cancer screenings, and Jacky opposes partisan efforts to defund the organization. Nevada women still make 81 cents to every dollar a man makes on average. Equal pay for equal work is essential, and Jacky knows that ensuring women have the tools to fight for paycheck fairness will make our families and our country stronger.	”

The following issues were listed on Rosen's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“	Creating Good-Paying Jobs: In Congress, Jacky Rosen will work hard to foster job creation and invest in things that create jobs - like our energy and transportation infrastructure, public and technical schools, and high-tech research. As a computer programmer, Jacky spent her career trying to help people work smarter, not harder, and getting rid of inefficiency. She’ll work to cut wasteful spending, get rid of outdated and burdensome regulations, and fight fraud. Immigration Reform: Jacky Rosen supports comprehensive immigration reform with an earned pathway to citizenship. Only through comprehensive reform can we secure our borders, find and deport criminals, and bring millions of undocumented immigrants out of the shadows and into our economy. Passing immigration reform legislation would create thousands of jobs in Nevada, grow our local economy and improve the finances of programs like Social Security. Jacky will fight for immigration reform that stays true to our American values and maintains America’s position as a beacon of liberty, hope, and opportunity across the world. Keeping America Safe & Secure: Jacky Rosen knows that the first job of the United States government is to keep Americans safe from foreign and domestic threats. In Congress, she will fight to keep our military strong and invest in our capacity to fight terrorism at home and abroad. She will promote strong leadership by the United States in international affairs, standing strong with our allies, and taking the security threats from ISIS, Iran, and North Korea seriously. Protecting Our Community: Jacky Rosen supports commonsense gun safety legislation including universal background checks on gun sales, closing the terror loophole, and closing gaps that allow domestic abusers to purchase firearms. She’ll work to keep our community safe, combat human sex trafficking, and secure our infrastructure and airports from outside threats — including cyber-attacks. Protecting Women’s Rights and Health Care: Jacky believes that women’s health care decisions are personal, and that government has no place getting between a woman and her doctor. She’ll oppose any effort to defund Planned Parenthood, or restrict women’s ability to make their own health care and contraception decisions.	”
