	Jim Pillen on Government Reform

Get government out of the way; reduce regulations

To support and grow these incredible economic assets, among our chief goals in state government must be to get government out of the way, reduce regulations and bureaucratic hurdles, and empower people and businesses to thrive. In our administration, we call this Operation: Clean Out the Closets, in which we try to identify every statutory or regulatory mandate that adds needless costs to healthcare, education, senior care, and businesses of all kinds.

Stand up to radicals using fake meat to attack Nebraska

The assault on modern agriculture has never been more evident than it is now. You can be sure I will fight against overreach by the federal government, like Joe Biden's 30x30 land grab and the Waters of the U.S. rule, and I will stand up to radicals who want to use fake meat to put Nebraska agriculture out of business. In Nebraska, we feed the world-we don't need government throwing up unnecessary regulation and red tape to stunt our innovation.

I strongly support the Voter ID ballot initiative

Secure Our Elections. We need to take appropriate steps to restore confidence in our elections. Nebraskans have to show photo ID to open a bank account, board an airplane, or check into a hotel-- it's a part of everyday life. Our election system needs the same commonsense protection to ensure the security of our elections. That's why I strongly support the Voter ID ballot initiative.
