“Our report shows how lobbyists’ pay-to-play system is drowning out the voices of everyday Nebraskans. We must stop the runaway lobbying train so the special interests & our elected leaders know our democracy is not for sale,”-@gavingeis of @CommonCauseNE. commoncause.org/nebraska/press…

Gov. Pete Ricketts confirmed that he gave funds to Conservative Nebraska for ad targeting gubernatorial candidate Charles Herbster. The governor told the Nebraska Examiner that he and his father, TD Ameritrade founder Joe Ricketts, gave $600,000 to group. bit.ly/3iqpJQQ?utm_me…

@JustinsNewsFeed Thanks for sharing, that's a case study in how we undervalue student journalism!

"We have enough holidays" is a pretty poor justification for a change that could allow a significant portion of our state to participate in democracy in a meaningful way.
Paul Hammel @paulhammelNE@PaulHammelNE

.@GovRicketts said today he opposes making Election Day a state holiday, as proposed by Lincoln Sen. @EliotBostar Ricketts says we have enough holidays, despite arguments that voter turnout might rise if it was a holiday.

I joined 15 other Secretaries of State urging Congress to reject HR 1, a dangerous, sweeping federal takeover of elections. Washington shouldn’t run elections — Nebraska does it right.

I was troubled by the number of references to "inevitable" political violence during this week's #neleg public hearing on calling a federal constitutional convention. npr.org/2021/02/11/966…

I feel like the Chekhov's gun of this committee hearing, my opposition was forewarned by the senator's introduction, and I have no choice but to deliver.

Voter ID laws keep many voters from exercising their right to vote. They would affect #Nebraska voters who often face barriers in getting such an ID, including low-income voters, racial and ethnic minorities, senior citizens, and people with disabilities. youtu.be/wnhYepvVENg

Vote by mail is a secure process. Every mail-in ballot is as unique as the voter, with unique bar codes. Voters can track the status of their ballot in most states. We may not know the winner of the election on election night, but that's ok. We must #CountEveryVote!

Fill out the census today. This is the last chance we have to make sure Nebraskans count in our democracy and get our fair share of resources. journalstar.com/opinion/column…
