Dina Titus, a U.S. Congresswoman representing Nevada's 1st district, recently shared her views on social media regarding significant legislative and policy developments. Her statements address the potential impacts of halting certain federal laws and decisions made by former President Donald Trump.

On January 21, 2025, Titus expressed concern over the cessation of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act. She emphasized their importance in transforming Nevada into a clean energy hub and creating numerous jobs. "Stopping implementation of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act is a big mistake. These laws have helped Nevada become a clean energy hub and created thousands of good-paying jobs."

Later that day, Titus criticized actions taken by Trump concerning healthcare policies. She stated that his decision to rescind Biden's executive order would increase costs for families by affecting prescription drug prices, Medicaid, and health insurance expansion. "Trump is already hard at work increasing costs for families. He rescinded Biden's executive order lowering prescription drug prices, strengthening Medicaid, and expanding health insurance for millions of people."

In another tweet posted on January 21, 2025, Titus condemned Trump's cancellation of flights intended for Afghan allies who worked with U.S. troops. She highlighted the betrayal felt due to abandoning those who sought refuge from Taliban retribution."Yesterday Trump cancelled flights for 1,600 Afghans who worked alongside U.S. troops and earned the right to seek refuge from Taliban retribution. These are our allies, and Trump is abandoning them."
