Dina Titus, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Nevada's 1st district, has shared her views on several pressing issues through a series of tweets. Her comments touch upon topics ranging from the protection of Afghan allies to federal workforce policies and cannabis industry reforms.

On February 18, 2025, Dina Titus expressed concern over former President Trump's stance towards Afghan allies. She stated that "CARE has protected thousands of Afghan allies from Taliban reprisal," emphasizing her pride in leading the bill that authorized this position. Titus criticized Trump by saying, "Yet again, Trump is turning his back on those who risked everything to stand with us. It is disgraceful."

Later that day, Titus addressed the closure of the JFK Library Foundation due to federal worker designations by the Trump Administration. She highlighted the importance of such institutions by tweeting: "The @JFKLibraryFdn is closed until further notice because the employees who keep it open are federal workers the Trump Administration deemed 'unnecessary.' Our historical, cultural, and educational institutions are not dispensable."

On February 19, 2025, Titus participated in a roundtable discussion hosted by CPI at UNLV as Co-Chair of the Cannabis Caucus. She tweeted about her engagement with cannabis research and industry reform discussions: "As Co-Chair of the Cannabis Caucus, I am grateful to have @CPIatUNLV as a resource in my district. I joined a roundtable they hosted to discuss cannabis research, the future of the industry, and potential for reform at state and federal level."
