Wow! Thank you all for following. This is quite unexpected…..

To my Republican friends, I hope you know I wish our party no ill will. I’m not trying to “harm” us. I’m trying reclaim what our party CAN be.
We are the party of Abraham Lincoln. We are the party that conceived of our National Park system. We are the party of the EPA and the strongest environmental regulations ever conceived.
These aren’t “liberal” ideas. They are American ideas and as Republicans we should be PROUD that we introduced them.

Three years ago, I passed legislation that brought wind energy to our state and now Nebraska is LEADING the nation in wind growth.
This industry has brought millions in investment, has created new income streams for farmers, great jobs, and new tax revenues that improve our schools and infrastructure.
Now, if I mentioned just THESE benefits, most Republicans would get excited but if I include the “wind” part, many TUNE OUT.

Why do we do this!? This is silly my friends! Renewable energy is a most CONSERVATIVE cause and we shouldn’t be afraid to champion it at every turn.
Thank you all for reading and I hope you have a great Monday. :)
