Dina Titus, a U.S. Congresswoman representing Nevada's 1st district, recently shared her views on various issues through a series of tweets. These posts address international relations, domestic security measures, and environmental concerns.

On December 12, 2024, Titus expressed her disapproval regarding comments made by the U.S. Ambassador in Athens about Greece. She emphasized the importance of Greece as a NATO ally and criticized the ambassador for allegedly calling Greek people lazy and having limited knowledge about the country beyond its yogurt. "Greece is a vital NATO ally that helps advance our mutual interests. Our Ambassador in Athens shouldn’t call Greek people lazy and should know more about the country than its yogurt."

Later that day, Titus announced the passage of her bill aimed at enhancing federal security support for major sports and entertainment events in the United States. She highlighted how this legislation would ensure safety at significant events such as Formula 1 Las Vegas and New Year's Eve celebrations. "This week we passed my bill to provide more federal security support for major sports and entertainment events. This will ensure special events we’re known for, like @F1LasVegas and New Year's Eve, are safe and successful."

In another tweet on December 12th, Titus reflected on the ninth anniversary of the Paris Agreement's adoption. She acknowledged progress made in combating climate change but stressed the need for continued investment in sustainable solutions to reduce emissions effectively before it becomes too late to make an impact. "9 years ago the Paris Agreement was adopted, bringing the world together to combat climate change. Though progress has been made, we must continue to invest in sustainable solutions and work to reduce our emissions before it's too late."
