A great day in North Platte!

From a new airport terminal—made possible by federal funding I worked to secure—to a future landmark to honor the North Platte Canteen, it's exciting to see what's possible when we invest in Nebraska.

[Senator Deb Fischer @SenatorFischer]

Every day, men and women in law enforcement step into danger to keep Nebraskans safe. I hosted a roundtable discussion with local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies to hear about the challenges they face and resources they need.

Today, we pay tribute to servicemembers who are or have been deployed across the globe. We are grateful to our active-duty personnel and their families for their strength and sacrifice.

This is a good thing for Nebraska’s taxpayers. Waste and fraud cost our federal programs billions every year—money that should be going to those who need it. I thank @USAO_NE for signing Vice President @JDVance’s pledge to root out this abuse of taxpayer dollars.

Today, I, U.S. Attorney Lesley A. Woods, am proud to take the VP’s pledge and join President Trump and Vice President Vance in the fight against fraud in Nebraska. Together, we will ensure that American benefits programs serve only law-abiding Americans, not fraudsters and their enablers. @VP @WHFraudTF

Great news: Pacific Engineering Inc. has officially opened its 3rd facility! Their new site in North Omaha will support PEI’s work on our nation’s next-generation nuclear-armed sea-launched cruise missile. Great to see a Nebraska company play a critical role in strengthening America’s nuclear deterrent.

Good to be in Fremont to visit with Mayor Sookram and city leadership. Fremont is growing quickly, and it was great to hear about the projects happening in Dodge County.

Midwest Housing Equity Group is working to expand affordable housing in Nebraska. I toured a townhome at The Row, a new affordable housing development in Fremont. We discussed the critical role of the CDFI Fund in making projects like this possible.

Eric Hamilton has built an impressive legal career defined by integrity, sound judgment, and a steadfast commitment to the rule of law. He has served Nebraska with distinction, and I am confident he will continue that tradition of service on the federal bench. I was proud to recommend his nomination to President Trump and look forward to supporting him through the Senate confirmation process. https://t.co/HVcYV1oPuQ

Nebraska’s rail infrastructure supports our strong state economy and connects our world-class products to the rest of the country. I’m proud to have supported investments into these three projects that will modernize our rail system and provide much-needed safety improvements. Read more below: https://t.co/x9CLVw7Obd

I've long pushed to bring critical mineral production and processing back to the United States. I could not be prouder to see Nebraska leading the way in securing America’s energy dominance. I appreciate the administration’s focus on strengthening our domestic critical mineral supply chain, and I thank @SecretaryWright and Chairman @JJovanovicUSA for supporting NioCorp’s plant in Elk Creek.

.@SecretaryWright understands a diverse energy mix of oil, gas, renewables, nuclear, and biofuels makes the U.S. stronger and more resilient during market disruptions. I’m glad he had a chance to hear firsthand from producers at a @NEFarmBureau roundtable about the challenges they face.

[Senator Deb Fischer @SenatorFischer]

Appreciated visiting Central Community College’s Columbus campus to hear about their early college programming and student support services. Thank you for all you do for Nebraska’s students.

Enjoyed meeting with Nebraskans in the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors to hear about the great work financial professionals do across the state.

[Senator Deb Fischer @SenatorFischer]

Nebraska remains competitive when it stays connected. That’s why I worked to secure federal funding to help build a new terminal at the North Platte Regional Airport—a game changer for western Nebraska.
