Update from Senator Jacobson

Since this will be my last column of 2023, I want to start by expressing my appreciation for all the support I have gotten throughout the year. This job has become an enormous time commitment, but I am truly honored to serve as your State Senator.

Update from Senator Jacobson

With the session just a couple of weeks away, I want to update you on a couple of topics I intend to work on this year. First, I met with the health insurance providers late last week regarding LB32 (MediGap) and we agreed on amendment language to move this bill ahead.

I’m fortunate to have many happy memories surrounding Christmastime throughout the years. I do love the Christmas season and the traditions it brings, but I’m also OK if we don’t get all the things done every year for the “perfect” Christmas. My favorite part is spending time with family.

Dave Says

Dear Dave, I think my mother-in-law has a serious credit card problem. She can’t afford stuff, but she shops anyway, chalks up more and more debt, acquires more credit cards, and thinks she’ll pay for it all later somehow.

Update from Senator Jacobson

This week, I want to begin my article by congratulating the North Platte Area Chamber & Development Corporation for selecting White River Soy Processing to develop a soy processing plant inside the newly created Inland Port of the Plains near Hershey.

Love them or hate them, it’s Christmas card season! I’m a Christmas card fan and even bigger Christmas letter fan. As someone who enjoys connecting with people, I love reading updates on everyone’s families.

Dave Says

Dear Dave, We’re following your Baby Steps plan, and we’ve paid off all our credit cards.

Update from Senator Jacobson

This week, Senators will be convening at the University of Nebraska Innovation Campus for the annual Legislative Council meeting. This meeting will be the first gathering of the entire legislature since the session adjourned on June 1.

Whew! If you’ve made it to this page, you’ve reached the end of my biggest issue of the year.

Dave Says

Dear Dave, My wife and I are debt-free except for our mortgage and two Parent PLUS loans for our daughters’ college educations. One of the loans totals $18,078, and the other is for $41,500.
