We had a great time tonight at Hardy Coffee Co working on postcards to voters and preparing literature for more door knocking this week! I am so lucky to have so many dedicated volunteers--you all really gas me up to keep up the momentum! Join us for our next postcard writing party on March 6th at Blue Line--put it in your calendars, and we'll see you there.

Please join me in supporting survivors of sex trafficking by contacting the senators on the Judiciary Committee. Ask them to protect survivors of sex trafficking and move LB 1132 to general file.

I was so grateful to be featured in this short news piece on KMTV, Channel 3 about millennials getting involved in local politics along with Alejandra Escobar, the leader of Young Nebraskans in Action at the Heartland Workers Center.

This analysis ranks Nebraska dead last in the list of best states for women entrepreneurs. I'm proud to be part of a movement that is doing something about that.
