The pro-Trump Republicans have millions of dollars to spend on television ads to try to re-elect their “do-nothing” incumbents.
We can’t compete in that funding arena. But one very powerful tool that we do have is our networks of friends, family and co-workers.
We need your help to reach out and mobilize those networks, both to get them to vote, but also to ask them to help spread the word by reaching out to their own personal networks.

Free Speech Society:
Every once in a while, a political mailer comes out that is monumentally stupid. Since the year 2000 (26 years) Nebraska property taxes have gone up 241%. The Republicans have controlled the unicameral and the governor's mansion since 1999 (27 years).
