Voters again reject using public funds to pay for private schools
LB509, a revival of a 2023 voucher scheme that gives tax credits to support private schools, is before state senators this session AGAIN.
But... this issue was overwhelmingly rejected by Nebraska voters just months ago. #neleg
It took two years, two successful petition drives, and 200,000+ signatures from Nebraskans to ensure voters could decide at the ballot box whether they support giving public funds to private schools.
The answer โ for the fourth time in the stateโs electoral history โ is NO.

๐ Senator Lou Ann Linehanโs latest attacks against us are a Hail Mary and we need your help to thwart her play and drive LB1402 into the ground! Ahead of todayโs game, can you pitch in to help us deliver a winning record for our public schools? Visit: https://t.co/ZpQlzDReyk
Nine former Republican State Senators urge Nebraskans to vote REPEAL on Measure 435 in a new Omaha World-Herald Op-Ed: โStand for fiscal discipline, demand accountability in spending, and avoid traps set by outside groups unfamiliar with Nebraska. Vote repeal on Measure 435.โ
Our latest ad made Senator Lou Ann Linehan and her billionaire buddies so mad that they held a press conference about it! They know we're telling the truth about their voucher scheme โ help us keep our ads on the air and reach even more Nebraskans: https://t.co/1D9ELBHPtV
Betsy DeVos and Lou Ann Linehan are up to their oldest trick: funneling public funds from our schools to private ones, leaving Nebraska taxpayers to foot the bill. Their schemeโbacked by billionaires behind LB1402โis all trick, no treat. Help stop them at https://t.co/S880MaHneR.
State legislators are playing games with our childrenโs education.
Legislators are diverting $100M to private schools, risking public school cuts, larger classes, lower teacher pay, and higher taxesโwith no accountability.
Vote REPEAL on Measure 435.

Nebraska has some of the best public schools in the nation. But the #nelegโs school voucher bill puts our kidsโ education at risk. The voucher bill spends $100 MILLION on private schools over 10 years, which could force cuts to public schools to pay for it.
REPEAL Measure 435.
