2024 NE Senate race: on Budget & Economy


Peter Ricketts: Delivered historic tax relief by controlling spending

Part of it is controlling the spending side, you know, how have we been able to deliver this historic tax relief? Well, it's because we've kept our spending down to 2.8%. So if you look across the eight years of budgets that we've done, the budget has only grown 2.8% annually, compared to the 6.5% it was growing before I took over. And when your revenues grow about 4.5%, and you keep your expenses lower than that, that's how you have the ability to provide this type of tax relief.

Preston Love: Critical that we utilize and leverage federal funds

I will first and foremost be a strong advocate for Nebraska's unique needs in the federal budget appropriations process. It is critical that we utilize and leverage federal funds to support agriculture, infrastructure, and community needs here in Nebraska. I believe we can provide these critical services while also spending responsibly.
