In a world of constant change and uncertainty, Republican leaders have answered the call to leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic. Here in Nebraska, Governor Ricketts has stepped up to meet the challenge of managing our state's response to the virus. Governor Ricketts' response to COVID-19 includes:
- Working with hospitals statewide and the Army Corps of Engineers to dramatically increase hospital-bed capacity
- Proposing a state-level, $50+ million emergency response package to be funded by Nebraska's rainy day fund
- Signing emergency measures to suspend red tape and provide relief to Nebraska's local restaurants
- Issuing an emergency declaration that allows for the use of additional resources to support Nebraska's economy and healthcare system
