This is a win for veterans everywhere. The fact that this was proposed in the first place was an insult to every person who has ever put on the uniform.

We will continue to hold this administration accountable to make sure our promises to those who served are kept, period.

I have been thinking of Liam and his family every day since he was taken from his community.. .I hope he is home in his mother's arms as soon as possible.❀️

Please read the judge's ruling and then call your Members of Congress.

What is obvious to me is that a lot of people deeply care about their neighbors and this country.

They didn't think we would. We do.

Nebraskans deserve elected officials who will respect the dignity of all of their constituents.

As I have been talking with District 4 neighbors this week, many have been sharing their concerns about the impact of the government shutdown on the economy and federal government services, including the pause of SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Plan) funding.

After Nebraskans and the people of District 4 overwhelmingly approved medical cannabis, Brad von Gillern voted against providing patients access to care. Now, the commission in charge of providing access won’t even show up to their public hearings.

Call all of your elected officials and tell them we don’t want to spend taxpayer money on prison camps.. .Not anywhere and not in Nebraska!

Pediatricians do not profit off vaccines. In fact, most pediatricians either break even or even lose money when they offer vaccines. Misleading parents about doctors' motivations puts children's health at risk and sows distrust in lifesaving vaccinations.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ This Independence Day, let’s remind ourselves:

The roots of modern American civilization began with the seeds of protests & speaking out against a tyrannical regime.

The Boston Tea Party? a protest. The Declaration of Independence? A list of grievances.

The contrast of the celebration of fireworks while we worry for our family, neighbors, and country weighs on so many of us tonight.

Take time to acknowledge your grief, clear your head, charge your spirt.. .and then we come together and work for a better tomorrow.

Nebraska's members of Congress are voting to gut Mesicaid funding which will impact everyone's access to healthcare when our community's clinics, hospitals, & nursing homes close.. .not to mention the impact to local medical professionals' employment. Have you called, yet? #neleg

It is mechanically not possible to bankrupt Medicaid.

Unlike Medicare & Social Security, there’s no pot of money for the program where spending stops if it runs out. Cutting ppl off Medicaid doesn’t leave more for others.

Republicans are cutting Medicaid because they want it to cover fewer people.

I continue to be struck by this language of β€œin accordance with the president’s priorities,” which treats the executive branch as an extension of the person of the president, and not a mechanism for instituting the will of Congress

Instead, I hope you awake today with renewed dedication to your oath of office and that you vote for the promise of all our country's people.
