Titus Announces Reelection Bid for State Senate Seat

Titus Announces Reelection Bid for State Senate Seat

Dr. Robin Titus has announced her campaign for re-election to the Nevada State Senate where she represents District 17. The district spans Churchill, Douglas, Esmeralda, Lyon, Mineral and Nye counties. Titus is seeking her second term as a state senator.

A physician by trade, Titus was first elected in 2014 to the Nevada Assembly, where she served for four legislative sessions. She won a seat in the Nevada Senate in 2022 and was named Senate Minority Leader in 2024.

“While others seek new political paths, I remain fully committed to fighting for our rural way of life. As a family practice physician for 40 years and your Senate Minority Leader, I’ve dedicated my career to serving Nevada — in the exam room and in Carson City.”

A graduate of Smith Valley High School, Titus earned her medical degree from the University of Nevada, Reno and its School of Medicine. She is currently the chief of staff at South Lyon Medical Center.

In the 83rd legislative session, Titus served on the Education, Finance, and Health and Human Services committees. She sponsored legislation to expand Nevada’s social workers workforce and to launch nursing apprenticeship programs, though both bills failed to advance.

Titus has also worked to reduce Nevada’s reliance on California for fuel. While her bill to create a task force on the issue did not pass, she has been pursuing solutions, including meeting with the governor and other leaders during the legislative interim.

In her re-election announcement, Titus said she is “standing firm in the Capitol to defend our conservative values.” She emphasized her commitment to protecting Second Amendment rights, pushing back against rising fuel costs, supporting military communities including NAS Fallon, and strengthening rural economies and infrastructure.

It smells like sewage and it can be bad enough that people don’t want to be outside or open their windows. It would be helpful to get an investigative journalist help the Fernley residents get a clear answer from the City, NDEP, and any involved facilities. I was really disappointed that the smell was not disclosed by my realtor when I moved here. I enjoy Fernley and am seeing the improvements that are being made.

Why does the County have to pay the whole bill? Just my opinion. Comment publication date: 5/7/26, 10:26 AM Comment source: Storey County, Tesla partner to extend I-80 Patrick on-ramp
