#Omaha abortion rights advocates, women, LGBTQ Nebraskans and allies fought State Sen. Mike McDonnell’s bid for a seat on @votedcdems central committee. They hope he reconsiders co-sponsoring #abortion restrictions and anti-trans legislation after a 17-3 loss. McDonnell said he will not budge.

The process we just went through shouldn't be praised, and I am disappointed that my own party wants to publicly declare otherwise.
Yes, plenty of people I know and like worked hard, but at the end of the day that doesn't matter if the maps are bad. – at Lincoln, NE
As Nebraska lawmakers wound down the special session on redistricting Thursday, Sen. @JustinTWayne and NDP Chair @janekleeb praised the process and called upon the grassroots of the party to join them in organizing to win elections. #NebDems

The local redistricting conversation puts into sharp clarity the concept of “heighten the contradiction” spoken locally by @_rapomaha and of course a mainstay in most movement work. Currently the conservative majority in our unicameral has the ability to rule through fear…

Kimara Snipes is an elected member of the OPS Board of Education. Proudly serving District 8, the same district she attended growing up. Kimara's experience as an elected official and school board member will serve her well as Omaha's next Mayor!

It’s the most Washington thing ever for pundits to discuss how democrats should forgive and forget the horrible shit Republicans did WHILE THEY’RE STILL FUCKING DOING IT.

Two more friends lost loved ones to #COVID19 today.
#Nebraska’s leading doctors and infectious disease experts are taking a stand to protect the public. We need stronger directed health measures to save lives. Only one person can do this - the Governor. If you agree, RT.

"I worked very hard for it" is the worst possible justification for being a billionaire. You know who works very hard? Single mothers working two minimum wage jobs with just-in-time scheduling and a bus commute.

We can’t build our way out of our overcrowding problem. We should be working to divert people from our corrections system, reunite families, and fund policies that we know keep people from becoming system-involved in the first place. For me, this is a non-starter. – at Omaha, NE
Prisons Director Scott Frakes said Tuesday the state is considering a public-private partnership to build a new, 1,600-bed prison between Lincoln and Omaha to help deal with overcrowding and staffing issues. journalstar.com/legislature/…

Thanks Angie for listening to us. Sasse is nowhere to be found. Probably somewhere selling a book instead of doing his job.
