Reps. Don Bacon and Mike Flood voted for harmful cuts that are raising costs for hardworking Nebraskans at the worst possible time. We need our representatives making life more affordable for everyone. #DefendingTheGoodLife #NE01 #NE02

Nebraska For Us storyteller shares how, after a lifetime of working and paying into the system, she now faces financial hardship and impossible choices just to afford the care she needs to live at home with muscular dystrophy. Read Melissa's story on our website, link in bio.

The White House says right now is "about the best economy we've ever seen." We find that really hard to believe!

The president is at Florida Gulf Coast University today, and students attending his rally have concerns that reflect what we're all feeling: Gas prices are too high. Inflation and interest rates need to come down. One describes the cost of living as "absurd."

SNAP enrollment has plunged about 25% in the last year, and now Medicaid cuts are just getting underway. What's happening here in Nebraska is a preview of what's to come nationwide.

"Groceries have gone up. Gas has gone up. Everything has gone up. ... Definitely worse now."

It’s a crisis that keeps growing by the month, and it’s only getting worse due to policy choices from our state’s entire federal delegation. 1011now.com/2026/10/22/nebra…

Today marks one year since SNAP cuts began in Nebraska. About 40,000 people have lost access to assistance, and the number is now growing by the thousands each month. These cuts were made possible by votes from Nebraska's federal delegation in order to cut taxes for the wealthy.

Gas prices in the metro remain very high. Now, some local stations are dealing with shortages, only adding to that pain.

Gas remains above $4.00 across the Omaha metro…if you can find it! wowt.com/2026/10/19/omaha-dr…

The vice president claims gas and diesel prices are significantly higher now than at the end of 2024 because of issues that are not related to the war in Iran.

"Out of any president I can remember, I have hurt more under him than I have any other president."

"I feel like everyone is just a few bad days from being in the same situation that we are." NBC News traveled to Lincoln to share the story of a family barely getting by on two incomes. It's a situation so many of us can relate to.

🚜 Join Nebraska For Us for Fueling Nebraska: What Higher Gas Prices Mean for Farmers & Families, a roundtable bringing together experts and community members to explore what’s driving gas prices and how rising fuel costs affect Nebraskans.

Families are now spending $600 more per month than they were three years ago, but the president says it is not his fault.

With some paying upwards of $700 more per month for their health insurance this year, a one-time $500 "refund" hardly begins to address the affordability crisis. We spoke to @WOWT6News about it.

We had a wonderful evening with nearly 115 friends at the Bellevue Berry & Pumpkin Ranch last night! We enjoyed an evening of fall fun right as the weather began cooling down. nebraskaforus.org/nenews/neb…

Inflation rises to 3.7%, and now the odds of another interest rate hike have grown. This will mean higher borrowing costs for all of us from credit cards to car loans and mortgages.

Speaker Mike Johnson suggests economic challenges right now have nothing to do with the war, tariffs, or any other policy choices.

Once again, it is apparently the media's fault that consumers are frustrated by the rising cost of living.

The chaos caused by sweeping tariffs and sky-high diesel prices is leading to local farms losing money or breaking even, if they are lucky. Here's a glimpse of what metro farmers are experiencing right now.
