I will never not be disappointed that Space Force wasn’t a military branch for the internet.
Senator McKinney reminds Senators that they shouldn’t be complaining about him representing and talking about OPS. They should be talking about the districts they actually represent. #neleg
Send Lonowski, Hughes & Kauth are apparently the ones who have been assigned by the majority to speak.

Watching #NELeg and I have never seen Senator Conrad this (rightfully) angry. LB653 is up with AM1947 and there is laughter heard off on the side of the floor. She (appropriately) calls it out as those taking selfies & playing legislature. “You don’t need 12 years to know this work is serious.”

Around the 2 hour mark on #NELeg video today, the Nebraskan LD8 sent to represent us, Sen Hunt, retells an interaction with Sen Hardin. His blatant sexual harassment is not only inappropriate, but it has no place in our government. Shame on Senator Hardin. Shame on anyone who heard & is silent.

Still on Firefighter cancer bill. Pointing out 15% of the session is over, Sen Moser sounds exhausted by being here. He says {people} will be getting cancer, so why should we cover it, just go through insurance. Damages will come. Thumb on scales of justice. Mentions “presumptive precedence.” #neleg

LB400 Sen Wordekemper’s bill to support for Firefighters who get cancer has opposition from banker-man, Sen Jacobson.
Small town Nebraska wondering “why does no one want to move or stay here.”
Sen J “They are paid enough. They chose this job.” #neleg

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Hey Sen Hansen, if there are inappropriate jokes made in the absence of a female, they are still inappropriate.

As much as I despise the cowardly Don Bacon, this would have been a good time to shine the light on the equally inept Adrian Smith. The hospital is located in NE03, a seat Smith has been clogging since 2007.

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

In case you didn't catch these hearings, I caught quite a bit.
Lorelle Mueting mentioned GovP asked her to apply. When pressed by Sen J Cavanaugh, began acting like she didn't understand. All others asked softball questions.
Her work friends were sad so many were against her appointment. #neleg

House Republicans passed their bill that’d rip health insurance from millions and take food assistance away from millions including households with kids as young as 7 in the largest Medicaid and SNAP cuts in history - while giving giant tax cuts to the rich.
Thread on the next steps of the process.

Sen Ballard’s MO256 on failed LB258 (read, he left without approval for a meeting & marked PNV).
After this reconsider, there is another from Sen Sorrentino (ENV), MO279.
