Titus to Partner With Three Square to Help Collect Food for Needy FamiliesNovember 22, 2010“With more than 250,000 men, women, and children struggling with hunger in our community, efforts to collect donated goods are critical during this holiday season. Three Square has been instrumental in the effort to assist Southern Nevadans during this difficult economic time, and I am pleased to lend my support for such a worthy cause. As we celebrate the holidays with friends and family, let us remember those less fortunate and open our hearts to help them keep body and soul together.”
Titus Writes to Banks on Suspension of Foreclosure ProceedingsOctober 6, 2010"I believe, however, that it would be wise and responsible for your institution to suspend foreclosure proceedings until you can ensure that your systems and documents meet high standards for accuracy and legitimacy. It is simply inexcusable that a family could be made homeless because of careless handling of paperwork."
Titus Announces Location of New Veterans’ Clinic in LaughlinOctober 4, 2010"For too long, veterans in Nevada have had to travel great distances to receive the care our country promised them.

Titus Announces Additional $57 Million for Nevada in Hardest Hit FundsSeptember 29, 2010"As ground zero of the foreclosure crisis, the Third District has been hit particularly hard during this recession.

Titus Highlights New Patient’s Bill of Rights Set to Take Effect TomorrowSeptember 22, 2010“The implementation of the Patient’s Bill of Rights is a huge step toward putting people in charge of their health care decisions, not insurance company CEO’s whose sole focus is on the bottom line.”
Titus Statement on Nevada’s Unemployment NumbersSeptember 20, 2010"These latest unemployment numbers reflect what we already know – Nevadans are struggling during this difficult economic time and we must continue to make job creation our top priority. This means diversifying our economy so that Southern Nevada is not so dependent on tourism and gaming and investing in both the production and manufacturing of renewable energy."
Titus Calls for More ‘Sticks’ to Make Housing Programs More EffectiveSeptember 16, 2010"I write to you today to again ask you to develop and implement effective sanctions on the Wall Street banks that are refusing to help Main Street. We have provided numerous 'carrots' but lack the necessary “sticks” to ensure that these programs will be effective. More pressure must be exerted to force banks to improve customer services and loan modification efforts."
