Dina Titus of Nevada’s First Congressional District released the following statement after the White House announced the Justice Department will send $1 million in funds to the State of Nevada to help pay law enforcement’s overtime associated with responding to the 1 October tragedy in Las Vegas.

“Law enforcement officials at all levels of government have done an incredible job of coordinating and supporting efforts to secure and comfort our community since the first moments of the 1 October tragedy.
