On Thursday, January 14th I delivered my annual âState of the Stateâ address to the Nebraska Legislature. Even after back-to-back years of major challengesâhistoric floods in 2019 and a pandemic in 2020âI am pleased to report that the state of the state is strong. The work of Nebraskans everywhere has helped to meet these challenges with grit, tenacity, and determination.
As Senators begin this session, there are plenty of opportunities to make our state even stronger. This will require working together the Nebraska Way. This year, the Unicameral will work on the state budget for the next two years. The budget Iâve proposed controls spending by limiting the average growth rate to 1.5 percent. Within this framework, we can achieve several important priorities.
