Brett Lindstrom in 2022 NE Governor's race
On Crime:
Don't coddle criminals who harm our most innocent
Children are society's most precious resource. Brett passed legislation toughening laws against child abusers as well as guardians who don't report the abuse they witness to authorities.
As Governor, Brett will continue his record of supporting law enforcement and being tough and smart on crime - not coddling criminals who harm our most innocent. This includes pushing back on any attempt that would defund our police.

On Education:
Encouraged college savings plan for employees
Brett is committed to investing in our future for generations to come. It's one of the many reasons he passed legislation encouraging employers across the State of Nebraska to create and contribute money to a college savings plan for their employees.
Many Nebraskan families are struggling to afford skyrocketing college tuition, but due to Brett's unwavering dedication to our kids, more students will be able to pursue their dreams at a fraction of the cost.

On Families & Children:
Help families of fallen first responders in time of need
Our first responders and healthcare workers have risked their own health to provide for us during the COVID-19 pandemic, have our back every time they put their uniform on - and all for the safety of our communities.

On Government Reform:
Government should never operate as nanny towards business
Small businesses are the lifeblood of Nebraska's economy - facing enough challenges without Governmental interference. As Brett travels throughout the state, he is hearing that businesses are struggling to keep their doors open due to staffing and
supply issues. Unconstitutional mandates have seeped into every business in every community. Nebraskans are standing up for their livelihoods - and as Governor, Brett will walk alongside you so that government never operates as your nanny.

On Government Reform:
Make it easier to vote and harder to cheat
When it comes to election integrity, Brett is fighting to make it easier to vote and harder to cheat. Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy.
It's past time we make sure our elections are fair, transparent, and that all legal votes are counted. One man, one vote: period.

On Gun Control:
Citizens have a right to own firearms and defend themselves
As an avid hunter and gun owner who believes that "shall not be infringed" means exactly what it says, Brett believes that citizens have a right to own firearms and defend themselves with them.
As Governor of Nebraska, Brett will ensure the radical left comes nowhere near your constitutional right to keep and bear arms.

On Jobs:
Guest worker program to bring workers to the state
While the state's unemployment rate of 1.9% sounds good, Lindstrom is concerned that it's too low and could be detrimental to the economy.He said the state's agricultural industry has stepped
up in creating employment opportunities in the state, but the big question is how to fill the jobs needed to grow the economy.
Lindstrom, an Omaha-area state senator, said there are more than 50,000 unfilled jobs in the state. He suggested a guest worker program for people who want to live and work in the United States, along with other ways to bring workers to the state.
Theresa Thibodeau said state funds should not be used to "help any immigrants that have come to our state illegally. Illegal immigration is bringing in crime, and it's an issue and it's hurting our public safety."

On Principles & Values:
America the most just, free and prosperous nation in history
America is the most just, free and prosperous nation in human history. Our Nebraska children deserve a fact-based, patriotic education that seeks to unify rather than divide.
Anti-American, divisive and left-wing propaganda like "Critical Race Theory" has no place in our public schools.
