How much will President Trump’s diesel fuel policy actually save Nebraska farmers?

Nebraska Farmers Union President John Hansen discusses the policy, while farmer and lieutenant governor candidate Ben Steffen puts the potential savings at just $125.

Is this meaningful relief for farmers facing rising costs, or largely a political gesture?

Nebraska has spent decades debating property tax relief. So why hasn’t the Legislature found a lasting solution?

At a property tax roundtable hosted by gubernatorial candidate Lynne Walz, Nebraska Farmers Union president John Hansen, explains why good ideas aren’t enough. Any plan needs the political consensus to secure 33 votes in the Legislature.

The challenge isn’t just finding a solution. It’s finding enough agreement to make it law.

Two candidates. One open seat. Two competing visions for Nebraska’s future.
In this edition of The Road to the Legislature, Dan Parsons sits down separately with Jess Goldoni and Taylor Royal, the candidates competing to represent Legislative District 18, covering northwest Omaha and Bennington.
Both candidates answer questions about some of the biggest challenges facing Nebraska:
    •    Property Taxes: How would they deliver real relief to homeowners?
    •    State Budget: Where would they cut spending, and what would they protect?
    •    Public Schools: Who should pay for education in rapidly growing communities?
    •    Data Centers: How should Nebraska protect its water, electricity and taxpayers?
    •    Partisanship: Will they put their constituents ahead of their political parties?
Goldoni, a business owner with a background in technology and artificial intelligence, discusses government accountability, economic development and preparing Nebraska for the future.
Royal, a CPA, financial advisor and business owner, outlines his approach to tax relief, government spending and economic growth.
Same office. Same questions. Two different perspectives.
Watch both interviews and decide for yourself who should represent District 18 in the Nebraska Legislature.
