Titus Joins Lawmakers and Volunteers in Support of GIVE Act and National Service
"The country is really hard hit, especially Nevada.  We have the highest foreclosure rate and high unemployment.  We need all the help we can get.  By passing this bill we are saying to the volunteers: ‘We respect your work, we value your work, we want to reward your work, and we thank you.’  But we also want to expand the program so we can bring other volunteers into the fold and make this truly an effort where everyone can give to the best of their abilities and we can all benefit nationwide."

Titus Amendment to GIVE Act
Congresswoman Dina Titus of Nevada’s Third District joined with Congressman Tom Perriello of Virginia to offer an amendment to the GIVE Act that would create a National Service Reserve Corps and help launch a new era of national service.  The amendment passed with a strong bipartisan vote of 339 to 93.

"The creation of a National Service Reserve Corps will make sure that those who are most eager to serve, and already have the training that communities need, can be deployed quickly and effectively."
