NE School Choice

Nebraska parents should have the power and freedom to choose the schools that work best for their children.

Governor Pete Ricketts: "Nebraska legislators, this is the year: put kids first and advance school choice."

[Pete Ricketts @PeteRicketts]

Nebraska is one of just two states that has yet to provide choice to its families and children.
Not every kid learns the same, and our children deserve to have the best education for them. Nebraska legislators, this is the year: put kids first and advance school choice.

Happy National School Choice Week!

TOUR UPDATE: The Boyz are headed to Lincoln, NE for @GovRicketts National School Choice Week proclamation. We have a busy week ahead of us.

We also have radio interview on KFAB later on today.

TOUR UPDATE: Turns out the Boyz can be in two places at once. One state has school choice and the other does not. It’s time to fund students, not systems in Nebraska (and expand in Iowa😉)

Senator Wayne: “Did you say it would take about 50 years to fix Omaha?”

Senator Hansen: “Yes.”

Senator Hansen: *silence “I mean.. idk”
