Episode #53: Lincoln Airport Authority: Dave Haring and Rachel Barth

This month, I am sitting down with Dave Haring, Executive Director of the Lincoln Airport Authority, and Rachel Barth, Director of Communications and Customer Engagement. We take a closer look at a ballot measure for commercial airports across the state. If passed, Constitutional Amendment 1 would give local governments control of how airport funding is used, leading to more airline options and increased customer satisfaction. Tune in to learn more about this initiative and be sure to get out and vote on November 8.

Nebraska Lawmaker BLOCKED From Visiting ICE Prison in McCook | Sen. Machaela Cavanaugh

Nebraska State Senator Machaela Cavanaugh joins the show to discuss being twice denied entry to the ICE detention facility in McCook… despite state law granting legislators access to correctional facilities at any time. Cavanaugh outlines what happened during her attempted visit, why she believes the governor’s administration is obstructing legislative oversight, and what this means for transparency, detainee treatment, and the separation of powers in Nebraska government. She also weighs in on the fate of the former work ethic camp, prison overcrowding, and the growing tension between the legislature and the Pillen administration ahead of a difficult budget session.
