So no more federal funding for Nebraska??

If he doesn’t believe in welfare, surely he doesn’t believe in government aid or subsidies

That goes for every citizen of Nebraska, and if you don’t like it vote him out!

I’m tired of this fucking pissing contest between Republicans and people that care about others

33% of Nebraska's operating budget comes from federal grants and funding.

Definition of a welfare state right there.

I would very much appreciate if a wonk can swing in and layout all the subsidies this guy/Nebraska benefit from.
