The admin's new rural nursing home staffing rule will force facilities to cut their number of patients or close their doors entirely.

That's wrong.

This White House should've listened to the bipartisan opposition to this rule and protected seniors' access to care.

Proud of the work University of Nebraska at Kearney is doing to prepare the next generation of Nebraska’s rural health care workforce.

Enjoyed hearing about the health care worker pipeline they are building with @UNMC through their Health Science Explorer program.

This new CMS staffing rule is a disaster.
 
It'll force 80% of nursing homes to hire more staff — in the middle of a historic staffing shortage.
 
Don't believe the spin. This rule will devastate rural America, forcing facilities to cut services or shut down.

Across Nebraska, dentists provide quality care for individuals and their families.

I enjoyed meeting with representatives from the American Dental Association and the Student Dental Association this week in Washington to discuss their work to support dental care.

The antisemitic harassment we are seeing on college campuses is unacceptable and deeply alarming.
 
Antisemitism has no place in our country, period.
 
Colleges and universities must be held accountable for their failure to protect Jewish students.

I cosponsored the Main Street Tax Certainty Act to help small businesses, like our independent insurance agents, continue to provide crucial services in their communities.

Great to visit with the Independent Insurance Agents of Nebraska!

When trouble strikes, people need a roof over their heads and help getting back on their feet.

I met with Nebraska members of National NAHRO to discuss giving a hand-up, not a handout, to those who need it.
