Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Today was the 1st day a sitting member of Congress in an early voting state endorsed a candidate,
and Rep. Dina Titus (D-Nev) endorsed Biden.

Rep. Dina Titus (D-Nev.) endorsed former Vice President Joe Biden's Democratic presidential bid Monday during a CNN interview.
Titus, who has worked with Biden in the past, called the former vice president the "best qualified" candidate among a field of "good Democratic" contenders who's built a "broad coalition" in her Nevada district, which includes most of Las Vegas.
Titus' endorsement is notable because she's the first sitting member of Congress from an early voting state (Nevada on Feb. 20 will become the third state to select a nominee, after Iowa and New Hampshire) to back a candidate in the Democratic primaries.

Rep. Dina Titus of Nevada, a key early voting state, endorsed former VP Joe Biden for president. "He's not just a sound-bite guy. He's a sincere person. He's not scripted. And I think that's what you need, that steady hand, to get us moving on the right direction"
