Legislature (nonpartisan ballot) · Legislative District 8 (LD-08)
Party: D (state party candidate list) source ↗As of 2026-10-27
State issues
Property taxes & state budget
Examiner questionnaire (Budget): “When I talk to my neighbors at their doors, they understand state government has a role to play in improving their daily lives.”
Examiner questionnaire (Spending): “While not responsible for solving every problem, the Legislature can be a force for good by creating opportunities for Nebraska families to take care of themselves and supporting Nebraskans who need a little help.”
K-12 education / school choice
No position found in sources checked
Abortion
No position found in sources checked
Sports betting/gaming & 2026 ballot measures (440/441/442)
Examiner questionnaire (2026 Ballot Questions): “We are facing a nearly $1 billion budget deficit, and as a state will need to find new sources of revenue. If regulating and taxing online sports betting is a way to alleviate the budget crisis, I look forward to working to make sure that revenue goes toward meaningful relief for Nebraska families.”
Guns
No position found in sources checked
Immigration
No position found in sources checked
Healthcare / Medicaid
No position found in sources checked
Agriculture, water & energy (OPPD/NPPD/NRDs)
Examiner questionnaire (Natural Resources/Data Centers): “Voters in LD 8 consistently raise concerns to me about data centers in Nebraska — in regards to both the negative impact they have on our natural resources and our society and in the lack of faith voters have in the state government to meaningfully address those concerns.”
Elections / voting
Examiner questionnaire (Ballot Measures): “I’ve collected signatures for multiple ballot measures, such as Medicaid expansion, minimum wage, paid sick leave and protecting access to abortion, because I know how important our right is to enact legislation through the ballot when the Legislature fails to do so.”
Labor / right-to-work
