I may be off base so correct me if I am, but I have always been under the impression the governor proposes a budget, and state senators determine how much gets spent and where it's spent. If that's the case, is it the fault of the governor NE went from $1.5B in the black to $750 in the red?
And I assume Don Bacon must have had other commitments, or he would have joined Mr. Kolterman. :)
This is the fault of the Unicameral for not addressing the full range of taxes and kept the income tax connected to the Federal Income tax which changed. This is why the deficit appeared.
As a resident of Dist. 24, I can say that I never thought much of Kolterman as a state senator. I was glad to see him finally leave. Now we have Janna Hughes who actually understands the work she is doing on behalf of Nebraska and Dist. 24. In my view, Kolterman's endorsement doesn't mean much.
During the Civil War, a Yankee Republican like Mark Kolterman who supported a Confederate Democrat like Lynne Walz was called a Copperhead. How many Copperheads are in the Nebraska GOP?

Walz is extremely ignorant about the how Nebraska's fake sales tax works.
