Nebraska families deserve leaders who will fight for the things that give them a shot at the Good Life. This decision will cause healthcare premiums to skyrocket come January. Nebraskans deserve better.

I am overjoyed to receive the endorsement from @emilyslist.bsky.social, an organization that I have worked side-by-side with for years in our work to support women running for office up and down the ballot. Let’s go!

I’m honored to have Rep. Annie Kuster’s endorsement. As a longtime leader in Congress, she knows what it takes to deliver for hardworking Americans. When I get to Congress, I will never stop fighting for hardworking Nebraskans to lower costs and improve people’s lives.

Last night I attended an event for the Metro Omaha Medical Society and chatted with Omaha-area physicians. They’re worried about healthcare policy, from Medicaid cuts to the lack of providers. Here’s what we’re seeing🧵:

On this day, 24 years later, we remember the tragic events of 9/11. I joined community members at Fire Station #1 in Downtown Omaha as we honored the fallen first responders and all who perished that day. May we never forget those who sacrificed themselves to save others.

For too many Nebraskans, the Good Life is getting harder to come by. I’m running for Congress because it's time to step up for our families, our schools, and our communities – they deserve better than what we’re getting from Washington. We don’t need more lip service —we need action.

Under Trump’s tax bill, average household energy costs in Nebraska will increase by more than $500 per family every year 😳 Hardworking Nebraskans simply cannot afford this. www.cnn.com/2025/06/27/c...
