People love to tell law students to “network!” without explaining more. My opinion: at this very early stage of your career, think of it as simply making sure people who might hire or recommend you know that you exist and have a positive opinion of you.

Congressman Kevin Hern had $1,082,302 in PPP loans forgiven.

Cute sound bite, but it doesn’t distinguish PPP or marketing assistance loans or any other place where we do this kind of thing. Could make bankruptcy changes. Could get away from student-debt financing higher ed and fund institutions. Lots of options. Quips are unhelpful.

I have 3: Bills should have a single subject. The south Platte canal isn’t worth $1 billion. And the state constitution has to be amended before appropriating money to non-public schools.

I know the private religious schools are hoping for federal first amendment protection on everything, but you won't avoid all the strings that come with government money. Debates every year on what we should do to tweak the eligible-schools criteria will be wonderful. /

Shocker. Our policies dealing with hemp, CBD and marijuana are so backwards.

Ever wonder about this sign?
The Flatwater Free Press reporter Jeremy Turley did, and it turns out it has roots in the 80s and involves teen boredom, an uptick in late-night car accidents, some mad kids and at least one sweet Bon Jovi song.

The Nebraska case allowing scholarship aid to college kids is clearly distinguishable. There the aid went “to” students because they had the power to spend it at either public or private schools. /

This is not criticizing Lauren (a Very Good reporter) in anyway, but state senators will tell you literally no one has worked on winner-take-all since it had a committee hearing last year. #neleg

How many times did Congressman Fallon's companies have debt forgiven from PPP loans?

Six – for a total of nearly $500,000.

#OTD Actor Ward Bond was born in Benkelman, Nebraska on April 9, 1903. With over 250 film credits, Bond is best known for appearing in 'It's a Wonderful Life and the series 'Wagon Train.'

Seems possible that Nebraska lawmakers aren't thrilled about being told how to do their jobs by out-of-state residents who don't understand the #neleg .

The first ballots have gone out. It's time to pay attention to the May 14 primary election in #Nebraska . Because there are some changes, starting with the need for an ID.

Nebraska may not be in range for a total solar eclipse, but in 1889, Nebraskans rang in the New Year's with a historic spectacle.

Congressman Clyde had $156,697 of debt forgiven from a PPP loan.

Are you ready for the #eclipse ?

On April 8, 2024, the path of totality will cross over 27 park units as it makes its way across Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine.

Another PSA to elect sane people who don’t lie about being “educators” and supporting public schools to the State Board of Education.

Follow and donate to Kristin Christensen, an actual teacher here: secure.actblue.com/donate/friends…

Elect sane people to be on our State Board of Education in November.

Handed out yard signs on Saturday & as always, I'm grateful for the support -- but especially when the support comes from a teacher. They know what's on the line if we don't have thoughtful & drama-free decision-makers on the State Board of Education. Let's do this!
