Congresswoman Titus Statement on Nnsa Briefing About Secret Plutonium Shipment

Press Release

Today Representative Dina Titus of Nevada's First Congressional District released the following statement after attending a briefing from representatives from the Department of Energy and the National Nuclear Security Administration along with members of Nevada's congressional delegation about the secret shipment of plutonium to Nevada:

"The Department of Energy has lied to Nevadans and their elected representatives for decades, and I have no reason to believe that will change," said Congresswoman Dina Titus (NV-1). "In today's meeting about the National Nuclear Security Administration's unchecked and unethical decision to secretly ship plutonium to Nevada, I learned nothing new. Instead of answering my questions directly, the Trump Administration officials repeated meaningless platitudes. I will continue to work with Governor Sisolak and the Nevada Delegation to hold the DOE's feet to the fire and protect our state and its people."
