Nebraska: We Have Our Very Own Community Organizer

Originally published October 13, 2010, By Shelli Dawdy. Updated October 13, 2010. 5 Comments

This one’s going to take several rounds of darts… Omahan Jeremy Nordquist just keeps coming to our attention because Nebraska’s two largest newspapers seem to have him on speed dial. If there’s a need to get a quote from someone on the opposite side of an issue from a Republican, or there’s a big spending […]

Nebraska Deem & Pass? LB 1110 Proved Shenanigans Not Limited To Federal Government

As a couple of Americans who have spent too much time focused on Washington, D.C. and not enough within our state (but making an effort to change this), we wonder whether the maneuvers regarding a certain piece of legislation introduced last session is common practice in the Nebraska Unicameral. We suspect it may well be. […]

Charity By Any Other Name Does Not Smell as Sweet

Next legislative session, a coalition of churches will ask Nebraska state senators to reinstate prenatal services for unborn children in all low-income families, including those here illegally. In the meantime, the member churches intend to educate their congregations about the moral implications of providing this care. As a Christian, I agree we have a responsibility […]

LB 1110 Another Conundrum Caused By Federal Government

Yesterday, I received an email alert from the Nebraska Advisory Group regarding an emergency bill that has been introduced by State Senator Kathy Campbell. Thirty-six of the forty-nine Senators voted to suspend the rules to allow Campbell’s bill to be introduced. This step was necessary because the introduction of new bills is closed for this […]
