Today we released the final ad of our campaign. My closing message is the same as what I started with.

Right now, it’s too hard for too many. Nebraska families deserve to have enough at the end of the week to buy groceries, to have a house, set money aside for Christmas and college, so all there’s left to worry about is bake sales and little league.

[Senator John Fredrickson @JohnforNE]

Authenticity, love, and compassion cannot be faked.

@Tim_Walz, thank you for showing America what it means to be a strong male role model.

And Gus - you are a superhero. Keep shining 🦸‍♂️

[Audrey Wauchope Lieberstein @audreyalison]

No one in that family is telling Gus Walz to be quiet or calm down. Not one of them has flinched at his tears and screaming. Do you know how rare this is?!!! These are not just good people, they are extraordinary parents and role models.

[Amy Klobuchar @amyklobuchar]

You know you’ve done well as a parent when your kids are as proud of you as Gus and Hope are of Tim Walz. “That’s my dad.” No three words better describe our next Vice President.

I think politicians should wear NASCAR jackets with logos for their sponsors.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

@OfficialJLD @OsbornForSenate We've been covering Dan's race.

Two years ago he led 500 coworkers in a successful strike at the Kellogg’s plant in Omaha.

52% of America is working class vs. just 2% of Congress – Osborn wants to buck that trend and represent real working families.

I was consistently paired with classmates who didn’t care about school for various reasons. Using girls to subsidize others’ schoolwork is an important conversation and I can’t wait to read this book!

@NebraskaDems This press release is another reason why I am now registered as an independent. Putting party above a real opportunity to make change & impact a LOT of lives is not only petty but irresponsible.

@DrMcCamey @AACNursing Folks can’t afford a PhD and a poorly-paying postdoc. I realize I may have impacted my career potential by not doing a postdoc, but I can’t afford it. If I had known lacking a postdoc would be seen so negatively, I might not have done PhD at all.

[Christina Farr @chrissyfarr]

I used Summer Health this morning for my kids’ pink eye and I reached a pediatric nurse in 2 minutes via SMS. I’ve heard a lot of physicians say that in-person is ideal because the importance of the physical exam, the subtleties etc.

My take: We too often rank virtual care against the most ideal in-person experience and say it falls short. But how about stacking it against the more realistic alternatives: No care at all b/c people have jobs, or a 5-minute in person visit after an hour in a waiting room surrounded by other sick kids.

[Jocelyn J. Fitzgerald MD @jjfitzgeraldMD]

There’s a 6 month waiting list to see a Urogynecologist/Female Pelvic Floor specialist because in the US we train one Urogynecologist per state per year.

But 44 million women will have a pelvic floor disorder (prolapse, incontinence) by 2050.

The math is not mathing 🧮

[UNMC CON @UNMCCON]

To say we at @UNMC College of Nursing are overwhelmed by our donor support would be an understatement. Thank you to all who made this year's #ForTheGreaterGood giving day one our faculty, staff and students will never forget.

@RealMoverShaker @columbianeurons @unmc @UNMCCOM @UNMC_mdphd Congratulations!!!!! 🎉

It’s 2024 and STILL the only affordable drugs for bladder leaks are associated with dementia.

You know what else is associated with dementia?

Not leaving your house because of bladder leaks.

This pharma injustice against women needs to end.

@DrShade1 You are AMAZING!!!!! 💛

[Antoinette, DPT @antoinettePFPT]

Normalize pelvic PT? No.

Normalize gatekeepers/docs adapting, following evidence and making the appropriate referrals as stated by their professional association guidelines.

How long do we stand here defending the legitimacy of our specialty?
