Dina Titus, a U.S. Congress member representing Nevada's 1st district since 2013, has been active on social media discussing various topics related to her legislative priorities and engagements. Titus, who previously served in the Nevada Senate from 1988 to 2008, shared updates regarding local security efforts, veteran health research, and disaster preparedness funding.

On November 23, 2024, Dina Titus expressed her gratitude towards the Nevada National Guard members for their role in providing security during the Formula One event in Las Vegas. She stated: "I met @NVNationalGuard members providing security for @F1LasVegas. Thank you for helping keep people safe this race weekend."

Later that day, she highlighted a significant development in medical research concerning veterans' health. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized a study on cannabis's effects on veterans suffering from PTSD. Titus remarked: "The @US_FDA authorized a study of how cannabis helps veterans suffering from PTSD. I have long advocated for reduced barriers to cannabis research and availability for veterans."

On November 24, Titus reiterated her call for increased federal funding for FEMA to ensure adequate disaster response capabilities. She urged Congress to take action by stating: "ICYMI: This week I called on Congress to pass additional funding for @fema. In the event of another disaster, the agency must be able to respond and support our communities."
