Thank you, @SenatorRicketts, for supporting protections that preserve states’ power to combat crypto‑kiosk fraud. #NE’s licensing rules, daily limits, and refund guarantees for new customers who fall victim to fraud are commonsense safeguards worth defending at the federal level.
Our appreciation is overflowing after celebrating our outstanding Lincoln @AARPNE volunteers yesterday. Your energy, heart, and dedication to advocating for the 50+ makes such a meaningful impact in our community. 🥰 And let’s be honest, you also know how to bring the fun! 👏👏👏
