Senator Catherine Cortez Masto says Nevada is not alone in the tourism dip.
At a press conference with the Culinary Workers Union on Monday afternoon, she says blanket tariffs are having a negative impact on both local and national tourism.
"What we're seeing is the hospitality industry and tourism and travel nationally," she said. "It is struggling because this administration has implemented erratic blanket tariffs."
Cortez Masto says the tariffs have discouraged tourists from other North American countries.
"The number of visitors to Nevada alone from Canada has declined by more than 18% from this time last year," she says.
