@moistbutter99 @asanderford @ZachWendling2 There are a lot of high schoolers who are responsible for helping to support their families. Not all kids are working for cash to go to the mall.

@asanderford @ZachWendling2 I think this is good, a high school job was never meant to provide a living wage, they still have parents for that

NEW YOUTH MINIMUM: Nebraska’s minimum wage will increase by 1.75% a year, no longer by the voter-approved cost of living, and certain teen workers won't see their pay crest $15 an hour for nearly 40 years. From @ZachWendling2: nebraskaexaminer.com/2026/02/05/leg…

@JournalStarNews I mean, actual citizens barely vote. Voter turnout is abysmal. Now, if only we had actual problems to throw our tax dollars at.

"It's very important that we assure ourselves that non-citizens are not voting," Secretary of State Bob Evnen said. "But we don't need to nationalize elections to do it." journalstar.com/news/state-reg…

@SenatorRicketts I would love to see some examples of Nebraska being pro-mom and pro-family.

Nebraska is a pro-life, pro-mom & pro-family state and today we join the nation in standing up to save babies and empower women. As a member of the Pro-Life Caucus, I’m fighting to protect the sanctity of life in Nebraska and around the country!

@nssnmp5ffk @janet_chung Private schools are able to pick and choose who they admit.

It's a good day to remind Jim Pillen you voted NO to giving tax dollars to private schools: Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen Office of the Governor P.O. Box 94848 Lincoln, NE 68509-4848 Phone: 402-471-2244 governor.nebraska.gov/contact-form

@Gr8PlainsRises @janet_chung *your

@janet_chung With a name like that you should be deported back to east asia Keep Nebraskans outta you’re fuckin mouth

@MWZachmeyer @TeamPillen For the Governor? I do too.

@TeamPillen I hope a mental assessment is part of the investigation.

I share Nebraskans’ profound disappointment in Senator Cavanaugh’s conduct in the State Capitol on Wednesday, January 7. As surveillance footage and observer pictures show, Senator Cavanaugh ripped down several of the state’s America 250 displays showcasing prominent figures and events throughout our Nation’s history and then stashed them in her office. As many Nebraskans and officials in the Capitol have expressed, if a private citizen had engaged in similar conduct, there would be a consequence for such misconduct.  My team and I have carefully consulted with law enforcement and members of the Legislature, and I have concluded this warrants a criminal investigation by law enforcement. Due to the Nebraska State Patrol’s responsibility for Capitol and legislative security, I have directed that agency’s superintendent, Colonel Bryan Waugh, to refer this matter to the Lancaster County Sheriff for further investigation.  As for any accountability Senator Cavanaugh should face as a Senator, that is exclusively the responsibility of the Legislature as a separate branch of government.

@Acyn Literally the easiest way to make flying more family friendly.

Reporter: Is there an update on the 2024 department of transportation proposal to ban airlines from charging families from sitting together? Duffy: I don't have an update.

@SecDuffy @USDOT I think what most families would appreciate is not having to pay extra to be seated next to their own children. I'm more concerned about not being gouged by the airlines than I am about being able to get in a pre-flight workout.

Here is what we are announcing today at @USDOT to make traveling better for YOU: $1 BILLION is now available for airports to become more FAMILY FRIENDLY! From exercise areas and play areas, to healthy food options and reading stations, we’re Making Travel Family Friendly Again! ✈️🇺🇸

@SecDuffy @SouthwestAir I'd love to bring back the golden age of not having to pay extra for the privilege of being seated next to my own child.

Every little bit helps as we bring back the Golden Age of Travel ✈️ Take it from Penny, one of the many great flight attendants at @SouthwestAir! #CheckInWithSean

@brettlindstrom Lol expanding youth sports is your main platform?

Nebraska is falling behind on youth sports. My goal is simple: invest in our kids, grow our economy, and strengthen our communities. Add your name to back our mission to build modern facilities HERE: brettforne.com/sports

@TeamPillen This isn't the flex you think it is. How about providing actual support so that women don't have to make this choice?

We’ve got to do everything we can to protect babies, and we have to step up to help moms in need. We took action and expanded Nebraska’s safe haven law to help babies that are vulnerable and ensure their safety. It’s not just that Nebraskans are pro-life, we’re pro-baby — which means being here to help babies and moms that are in tough situations.

@NebPubMediaNews We are fortunate that our school offers a great (and affordable) before/after school program. However, I have to set my alarm for midnight on the day of signup in order to get a spot. I feel for parents who don't have this option.

Parents of 144,000 children in Nebraska want to enroll them in after-school programs, but a report says four out of every five of those kids will miss out. Groups are hoping to increase the availability of programs to better meet demand. nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/news/news-a…

@TeamPillen Pro life (*but only if you're a white family from a rural area, preferably a rich farming family.)

Kids, Taxes, Agriculture, Values — that’s what I’m about as Governor. We’re working hard to: ✅Grow the pro-life movement ✅Invest in the next generation of Nebraskans ✅Cut spending ✅Reform our broken property tax system ✅Defend our farming and ranching families ✅Expand ag and business opportunities ✅Build our workforce ✅Advance @POTUS’ conservative America First Agenda Read more in the @NorfolkNews: norfolkdailynews.com/select/pillen-…

@getparlerapp @johnrich The guy just broke a record for the largest ticketed concert attendance (112,000 people). I think he'll okay.

Nashville is full of guys like this👇

@TeamPillen 48 out of the 93 counties do not even have a private school. Please continue to invest and support our state's amazing public schools.

School choice is pro-kids, pro-parents, and pro-education. It’s a no brainer. 📚

@TeamPillen @POTUS Is this the same governor who refused to accept federal money to fund the Summer Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) program until he was pressured? Funneling federal funds to private catholic schools = good. Feeding children = bad. Got it.

School choice is a game-changer for Nebraska students and families.  Today, I signed an Executive Order indicating Nebraska’s intent to opt-into the Federal Scholarship Tax Credit, which was signed into law by @POTUS as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill.  When it comes to educating our kids, we need to ensure that every student is in an environment that allows them to succeed. This program will provide that opportunity and pave the way for new school choice opportunities beginning in 2027.
