Titus’ Weekends Without Hunger Bill Included in Child Nutrition Act"While school meals help keep children healthy and ready to learn during the days that school is in session, there is currently no targeted federal nutrition program that is available to provide these children with food during the weekend or during holidays. A vacation from school should not mean hunger for children."
Congresswoman Titus Nominated to Education and Labor Committee"Building on my efforts in the classroom and in the State legislature, I will continue to fight for a quality education that is affordable and accessible so that Nevada’s children have the resources they need to meet their full potential."
Education and Labor Committee to Hold Field Hearing in Henderson on May 29“I look forward to welcoming Chairman Hinojosa to Southern Nevada to discuss this important legislation that can help provide people with the training they need to find a new job or get ahead in the workplace. With unemployment in Nevada at a 25-year high, it is critical that we examine what works and what doesn’t with job training programs so we can put people back to work.”
Titus’ Opening Remarks at Field Hearing on the Workforce Investment Act"I am encouraged by the enthusiasm with which the Education and Labor Committee has taken on the task of reauthorizing the Workforce Investment Act. This important legislation is one of our many efforts to fix the economy, and I stand committed to work with my colleagues on the Committee and in the spirit of bipartisanship to take Nevada and our nation in a new direction."
