Recent @HCInstitute poll indicated that 52% of Nebraskans surveyed feel the state is 'on the wrong track.' A year ago, that question drew a 50-50 split (wrong track v. right track). Also, respondents had more trust in local officials, than state officials, to manage tax funds.

We are Leaning into Conflict Training with @BlackVotersMtr #LWVcon22
Coalition is hard and part of reason it’s hard is because sometimes we are afraid of conflict and tension. How can we explore our personal views and differences so that we can build together? @LWV

Calls for nonpartisanship in government are not necessarily the same as calls for more civility and moderation. The former is about behavior whereas the latter is about reform and process. Nonpartisanship is institutional; civility is individual. #NELeg #Reform #KeepItNonpartisan

The cost of continuing the enhanced child tax credit beyond 2021 caused negotiations to stall. Congress could reinstate some of the more targeted benefit enhancements of the 2021 CTC to lower the cost but still get benefits where they're most needed. tpc.io/3MwvBoC
