Titus enjoys a week of firsts in Washington |
 By Lisa Mascaro - November 22, 2008
WASHINGTON — Congresswoman-elect Dina
Titus arrived for dinner with lawmakers in a stately hall under the
Capitol dome last week to find she had been assigned a seat worth
noting: The chair between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Mr. Pelosi at
Table No. 1.
Not a bad spot for a freshman in a class of 53 (and counting). New
Democrats and Republicans gathered for a bipartisan breaking of bread
during orientation week in Washington.

Titus: 'Working Together There Are No Challenges We Can't Overcome' |
|
Las Vegas Review-Journal Declares Dina Titus winner in Congressional District Three! Check out Senator Titus' remarks at the Election Night gala in Las Vegas, Nevada:
"Thank you. Six months ago, joined by many of you here tonight, I announced my candidacy for the Third Congressional District. I was getting a late start and up against a three-term incumbent. And while he had more money, I had all of you.
"With your support every step of the way – knocking on doors, making phone calls, getting voters to the polls – we did it. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, for the long days and late nights. I am honored by the trust you have placed in me and humbled by the outpouring of support I received during this campaign.
"While the road was tough, the journey is just beginning. The real work lies ahead. Change doesn’t come easy and Nevada and our nation face a number of challenges after years of failed leadership. But I am ready to meet these issues head on. I am ready to get to work for the people of Southern Nevada. I am ready to go to Washington to bring the change we need and the change you voted for.
