We’re successfully growing Nebraska and creating jobs here in the Good Life. Nebraska had the nation’s lowest average unemployment rate in 2020 and 2021, and we do again so far in 2022. In fact, we currently have the lowest unemployment rate in state history at 1.9%. As of Sunday, August 14th, the State’s job website (NEworks.nebraska.gov) listed 51,835 available openings.
A recession is the worst time to raise taxes, yet here we are again – fighting against a tax-and-spend agenda. Last week, new government data show what American families have been feeling for months now: we are officially in a recession. The U.S. economy shrank by .9 percent in the second quarter of the year, the second consecutive quarter of negative growth.
Scars can develop if an injury is not treated properly or you didn't think a cut was deep enough to necessitate treatment. Scars also may develop after surgery or another medical procedure. Scars may be dark marks, which are pink, red or brown patches that result from post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Cuts, burns and other injuries to the skin, including acne, can contribute to hyperpigmentation. Certain scars may fade and become less noticeable on their own, but there are other ways to speed the process along. Dark scars can be made less visible after the application of topical treatments, such as those with salicylic acid or glycolic acid peels, which help promote cell turnover, advises the beauty experts at Good Housekeeping. At-home topical brightening ingredients are another option that can be discussed with a dermatologist. In terms of textured scars, which may be depressed or raised areas on the skin, microneedling or dermaroller treatments may help to diminish these scars at home. Individuals with deep, dark scars may need to seek the help of a dermatologist, who may recommend therapies that can use light, peels and fills to make scars less visible.
Nebraska is experiencing terrific growth. We’ve seen big success creating jobs, cutting taxes, and attracting investment to our state.

There is an old saying that goes like this “You never miss the water till the well runs dry.” And – it would seem, there are wells that indeed are running dry or getting low today without rain to recharge the soil and water levels.
We’re less than a month away from our state’s biggest annual celebration—the Nebraska State Fair. From Aug. 26 through Sept. 5, Nebraskans from across the state will gather to share all that Nebraska agriculture has to offer. It will be the 153rd time we gather for this time-honored tradition.
As Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine continues with no end in sight, it is as important as ever for the U.S. to strengthen our ties with allies in the region. Standing in solidarity with states at risk of Russian aggression requires us to send a clear message we are working on behalf of the friends of freedom and economic prosperity.
This month, I issued a proclamation declaring July 2022 as “Victims of Communism Month” in Nebraska. This is the second year in a row that I’ve issued this proclamation as a way to highlight the atrocities committed by Communist governments. There’s no clearer example than the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), whose regime is a human rights abuser to its own people. In recent years, the CCP has ruthlessly crushed dissent in Hong Kong. It has committed genocide against ethnic Uighurs. And it is one of the world’s worst abusers of religious freedom.
