Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Majority Leader Schumer, Minority Leader McConnell, Speaker Pelosi, and House Minority Leader McCarthy: We are writing you today to urge you to reject the “For the People Act” otherwise known as H.R. 1 or S. 1, which is a dangerous overreach by the federal government into the administration of elections. Each state legislature should have the freedom and flexibility to determine practices that best meet the needs of their respective states. A one-size-fits-all approach mandated by Congress is not the solution to any of our problems. These bills intrude upon our constitutional rights, and further sacrifice the security and integrity of the elections process. We firmly believe the authority to legislate and regulate these changes should be left with the states. H.R. 1 and S. 1 blatantly undermine the extensive work we, as election officials, have completed in order to provide safe, accessible voting options for our constituencies.

  • General Election Official Results
    OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF STATE CANVASSERS GENERAL ELECTION NOVEMBER 6, 2018 Compiled by JOHN A. GALE Nebraska Secretary of State STATE OF NEBRASKA _____________ OFFICE OF SECRETARY OF STATE _____________ When I was sworn into office December 19, 2000, our national elections were under heavy assault. Due to election calamities across the country, there was nationwide clamor to improve election technology and election management. The Help America Vote Act of 2002 (HAVA), and the $3.5 billion appropriated for elections, was a direct result. State government elected that Nebraska become a top-down state with a statewide election management system, a centralized voter registration database, and a uniform statewide system of election equipment owned and maintained by the state. The choices have served us well and all federal mandates have been met. From 2006 through 2018, Nebraska has had smooth, reliable, accessible, transparent and accountable elections. Nebraska’s 93 county election officials and commissioners have been outstanding partners with the Secretary of State. The Chairman of the U.S. Elections Assistance Commission once ranked Nebraska as an A+ system. Public confidence in our elections has been high. The general election of November 6, 2018, was my ninth general election as Secretary of State. Nebraska hit a voter registration record, a decade plus mid-term election voter turnout, four counties conducting their elections completely by mail and a significant increase in early voting. 2018 was a very smooth election year. It has been a great honor and privilege to serve as Nebraska’s Secretary of State, Chief Election Officer, and as a member of the Nebraska Canvassing Board.

  • Nebraska Legislature: How They Voted for the Early Advantage of Children in the 104Th Legislative Session 2015 – 2016
    Nebraska Legislature: How they Voted for the Early Advantage of Children in the 104th Legislative Session 2015 – 2016 Dear Nebraska Friends and Colleagues, July 2016 We have pulled together the following information to indicate how Nebraska’s State Senators voted for children on select occasions during the 104th Legislative Session. These selected votes were based on legislative proposals critical to impacting working families and their children. These proposals were priorities of the Holland Children’s Movement related to issues of health, education and economic stability. We have included a percentage of each senator’s support of these priorities based on their votes on specific legislative measures throughout 2015-16. These voting records do not indicate other legislative activities of interest to Nebraska’s children, such as committee votes or bills introduced. We are pleased to report that more than half of all senators voted in support of the position of the Holland Children’s Movement 80% or more of the time. We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all of our senators for their dedication to public service and our gratitude for the actions taken to make Nebraska a national leader in opportunities for all children. We hope you will continue to support efforts to tackle the root causes of family poverty and assure that every child in Nebraska will have the support and opportunities they need to reach their full potential. Sincerely, John J. Cavanaugh Chief Operating Officer 1700 Farnam St, Ste 1090 Omaha, NE 68102 2016
