ELECTION 2018 CONSERVATIVES FARED WELL IN GUBINATORIAL, SENATE AND CONGRESSIONAL RACES, LESS WELL IN LEGISLATURE, AND FAILED WITH SOCIALIST MEDICAID
Sen. Deb Fischer won a 100% conservative score, the first time that NTF has awarded this score! Sen. Ben Sasse scored a 96% conservative voting score.
Congressman Don Bacon:
The first week of the 116th Congress:
As we begin the New Year and 116th Congress, we must work across the aisle to improve security at our southern border and provide proper funds to our Border Patrol. Speaker Pelosi and those on the far-left driving her must be willing to compromise on these issues and pass bills that will benefit all Americans. Click the link to read my full statement.
We also started off this first week by voting for House leadership and rules pertaining to how the House operates. I cast my vote for Rep. Kevin McCarthy who will serve as Minority Leader. Nancy Pelosi was elected Speaker. To keep our Congress efficient, we must ensure it keeps up with the fast-changing times that it represents. For this reason, I voted for Title II of the second Rules Package presented, establishing a Select Committee on the Modernization of Congress.
This select committee’s goal will be to bring our Congress into the future with more efficiency, develop talent to lead our nation, and provide reports on it’s findings. I was happy to see this pass with bipartisan support and will continue to look for issues to work on in a bipartisan fashion, while still maintaining my principles and goals.
I voted against the first Rules package offered by Speaker Pelosi’s Rules Package because it makes it easier to raise taxes, and raise the debt ceiling without a vote.
We can’t afford to increase taxes or our national debt. We must find a better solution.

Stung by the Trump freeze on federal hiring and his pledge to “drain the swamp” in the federal bureaucracy, union employees are fighting back. Employees purposely leak memos and sabotage the Trump efforts to streamline and trim the bloated bureaucracy and slice away waste, inefficiencies, and fraud. Agency employees use their government computers to post messages and commentary contrary to the President’s directives. This entrenched, intransigent civil service can slow the progress of Trump rules and regulations. The liberal federal bureaucracy will sabotage the Trump Agenda as much as possible. Example: The Justice Dept. asst.-secretary who refused to enforce the Trump immigration restriction. Liberal federal judges try to block Trump reforms continually.
Congressional leftists in the House and Senate are plotting to delay, destroy, or at least dilute Trump legislation to lower taxes and spending, keep out Muslim terrorists, protect the lives of unborn babies, and rid commerce of strangling and job-killing rules and regulations.
The controlled, liberal print, radio, and TV media deliver daily poisonous commentary about the Trump Agenda, pounding the President on every issue with flagrantly biased coverage.
Liberal-controlled institutions like universities and increasingly our public schools churn out a steady pabulum of leftwing indoctrination, goading their students to protest and march against the Trump Agenda.
The international Left coordinates closely with their American comrades to mobilize simultaneous marches, riots, and attacks on private property and businesses.

To confront, counter, and overwhelm this Leftist onslaught, conservatives must take action now! Though many conservatives gratefully volunteered to elect Donald Trump, now is not the time to fade into the political wilderness. Our President campaigned hard for us, won, and now has embarked on a journey to restore our nation to the constitutional foundation bestowed upon us by our Founding Fathers. He needs and deserves our help. Join us today to Make America Great Again!

8TH ANNUAL INDEPENDENCE DAY TEA PARTY HUGELY SUCCESSFUL!
Nebraska Taxpayers for Freedom again protested the treatment of taxpayers by officeholders in Nebraska and Congress. “We continue to protest against taxes and illegal immigration,” said Doug Kagan, NTF president, “because elected officeholders continue to anger us with high taxes, higher debt, excessive spending, burdensome regulations on businesses, and undeserved privileges for illegal aliens.”
With themes of ” No Taxation without Representation” and “No Illegal Immigration without Representation,” taxpayers rallied on Friday, July 29, at Walnut Grove Park, 150th & Q Streets, Omaha.
Keynote speakers included Att.-Gen. Doug Peterson, Mayor Jean Stothert, congressional candidate Don Bacon, and Dr. Mark Christian from the Global Faith Institute speaking on radical Islam. Those attending visited and met with conservative state and local candidates and officeholders.
Our tea party also featured patriotic music, contests, drawings for prizes, and a Liberty Tree.
