Dina Titus, a current member of the U.S. Congress representing Nevada’s 1st District since 2013, has expressed her views on social media on pressing issues that affect her district and beyond. Titus’s insights are rooted in her extensive experience, having also served in the Nevada Senate for two decades prior to her congressional tenure.

In a post dated April 3, 2025, Titus commented on the Trump Administration’s foreign policy, stating it "has discouraged international travelers from visiting the United States, hurting the economies of areas that rely on tourism like Southern Nevada." Her statement reflects concerns about the economic impact of diminished international tourism on local economies reliant on this sector.

On April 4, 2025, Titus turned her attention to food insecurity, emphasizing the importance of maintaining funding for assistance programs. She noted, "In order to combat food insecurity, we need to protect funding for assistance programs like SNAP. #OnlyinDistrictOne, over 300,000 households rely on SNAP benefits. Slashing #SNAP funding would keep children hungry and jeopardize public health." By highlighting these figures, Titus underscores the reliance on SNAP benefits in her district and the potential consequences of funding cuts.

Additionally, on April 4, 2025, Titus shared her experience attending the Rededication Ceremony of Ruby Thomas Elementary School. She expressed her appreciation for the school’s contributions, stating, "#TeamTitus attended the Rededication Ceremony of Ruby Thomas Elementary School. I appreciate Thomas Elementary’s rich history and the faculty's dedication to its students, ensuring that they reach their greatest potential." Her remarks celebrate the educational achievements and the role of dedicated educators in the development of students.
