Dina Titus, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Nevada’s 1st district, has recently expressed her views on social media regarding significant political issues and initiatives. Titus, who has served in Congress since 2013 after replacing Shelley Berkley, took to Twitter to discuss matters affecting Nevadans and national security.

On February 21, 2025, Titus addressed concerns about Republican efforts to reduce funding for essential programs like Medicaid. She emphasized the potential negative impact on Nevadans in a conversation with CNN's John Berman. "Republicans are attacking essential programs and services like Medicaid. I spoke to @CNN’s @JohnBerman about the impact on Nevadans and why I’m pushing back."

Later that day, she highlighted Las Vegas's reputation for hosting major events such as F1 Las Vegas and the Super Bowl. Titus announced her reintroduction of the DHS Special Events Program and Support Act aimed at enhancing security measures at these gatherings. "From @F1LasVegas and the @SuperBowl to major music festivals, Las Vegas is known for our events. Today I reintroduced the DHS Special Events Program and Support Act to improve security at these gatherings and keep people safe."

In another tweet posted on February 21, 2025, Titus criticized proposed cuts by House Republicans that could jeopardize Medicaid programs supporting family caregivers in Nevada and nationwide. She underscored the importance of defending Medicaid to continue aiding those who significantly contribute to communities. "House Republicans’ proposed cuts to Medicaid threaten programs that compensate family caregivers in NV and across the country. We must defend Medicaid and continue supporting those who contribute so much to our communities."
