The latest results of the Nebraska Voter's Outlook Poll clearly indicate that Nebraskans want to see investments in healthcare services, affordable child care, and public education rather than raising the state sales tax to reduce property taxes. 📄: nebraskaexaminer.com/briefs/conflic…

Recent @HCInstitute poll indicated that 52% of Nebraskans surveyed feel the state is 'on the wrong track.' A year ago, that question drew a 50-50 split (wrong track v. right track). Also, respondents had more trust in local officials, than state officials, to manage tax funds.

According to our most recent poll, 67% of Nebraskans believe providing food assistance for families is important. Check out our poll to learn more about the programs and services Nebraskans would like to see prioritized by the #NELeg: hollandinstitute.org/nebraska-voter…

We're ecstatic to see Gov. Pillen opt Nebraska into the Summer EBT program, ensuring that 150,000 children will have access to nutritious meals while school is out. Thank you to @senatorjenday & Sen. Aguilar for advocating for families across the state! nebraskaexaminer.com/2024/02/12/gov…
