Washington has the funds to keep SNAP going — it just refuses to use them.
When the federal govt fails, Nebraska must lead.
We’re calling a special session to protect families, support TANF & ADC, and ensure no Nebraskan goes hungry.

Rather than addressing the budget shortfall through equitable measures such as pausing income tax cuts, the Legislature plans to cut essential services and raise taxes on working Nebraskans— all to benefit Governor Pillen, not the people.

[NE LD6 @ld6_ne]

The Legislature is attempting to cut essential services. These cuts are short-sighted as there are more equitable solutions to filling our budget deficit.

[NE LD6 @ld6_ne]

I am introducing an alternative to LB 261 and LB 264, the state budget. AM 1303 and AM 1295 tackles the budget gap, prioritize essential services, and protects the long term financial health of our state.
