Fellow American,
Our Nebraska GOP convention certainly looks different this weekend than we imagined it would several months ago. Instead of meeting in person, we’re doing an online format, as we are still working on recovering from the COVID-19 shutdown.
My heart and prayers are with the families who lost loved ones to this terrible disease.
All Nebraskans have been hit hard by the coronavirus — the shutdown to flatten the curve has affected everyone and it’s done a number on our economy. Especially those in agriculture, which is our great state’s economic backbone.
Our producers, our corn farmers, and our ethanol plants are hurting. When they suffer, our entire state does too.
Small business across the state and the rest of America have also been struggling to make it through this challenging time.
But we’re coming together as communities, and supporting one another. This virus can’t change our resilience. Neighbors are still helping neighbors.
Our amazing healthcare workers and first responders are working all hours to keep us healthy and safe. Food banks are stepping up to fill in the gaps and keep our families fed.
It’s easy to forget with all the things that have happened this year that we have a presidential election only five months away. I am so glad that you’re here and on board to help re-elect President Trump, and keep Nebraska red.
It’s more important than ever to elect principled, conservative leaders, who will always put people above petty politics. We need to work together to recover and Keep America Great.
I’m sad I can’t be with everyone in person this weekend for our convention, but I’m grateful for technology that lets me connect with you through video.
Please take a few short moments to watch my message to Nebraskans, and forward to your family and friends.
