    Grassroots Resistance to the Keystone XL Pipeline in Nebraska By James Patrick Ordner Submitted to the graduate degree program in Sociology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ______________________ Chairperson: David Smith ______________________ Robert Antonio ______________________ Eric Hanley ______________________ Kelly Kindscher ______________________ Joane Nagel ______________________ Bill Staples Date Defended: December 7, 2015 The Dissertation Committee for James Ordner certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Grassroots Resistance to the Keystone XL Pipeline in Nebraska ______________________ Chairperson: David N. Smith Date approved: December 7, 2015 ii Abstract: While the Keystone XL pipeline project became a major cultural and political symbol for the greater environmental movement’s effort to curb carbon dioxide emissions and begin shifting to a renewable energy economy, a vigorous and sustained grassroots movement, led by the social movement organization Bold Nebraska, emerged in rural Nebraska to fight the pipeline at the local level. Using the politics of contention perspective and framing analysis, this dissertation analyzes the Keystone XL debate in rural Nebraska at the structural, cultural and agency levels of analysis. At the structural and cultural levels, I use county demographic data to examine the sociopolitical factors shaping mobilization outcomes in Nebraskan communities. The main body of the analysis focuses on the narratives and discourses used by the various interests involved in the debate in Nebraska. Through the use of in-depth interviews and testimony from four public comment hearings held in Nebraska (N=528), I identify the major framing strategies employed by both pipeline supporters and pipeline opponents.

    Nebraska Makes History

    Nebraska Makes History: The 1986 Gubernatorial Election The 1986 Nebraska gubernatorial election was unprecedented in American politics, as it was the first governor’s race in the 210-year history of the United States where both major-party nominees were women. The record books were rewritten again when Kay Orr defeated Helen Boosalis to become the first female Republican governor in America. The groundbreaking election earned national headlines, with major outlets such as the New York Times and others picking up the story as it unfolded in the heartland. For context of the ‘86 election, in 1982 Democrat Bob Kerrey defeated Republican Charles Thorne for the Nebraska governorship. Four years later, the highly popular Kerrey decided not to seek re-election, instead turning his focus to a campaign for the United States Senate in 1988—a wise move, it turned out, as he won. Kerry’s removal of himself from contention in 1986 sounded a call to a large number of eager candidates, and a crowded primary field emerged in both parties. Seven Democrats ran: Chris Beutler, Barton Chandler, Mina Dillingham, David Domina, Marge Higgins, Robert J. Prokop, and Boosalis. The Democratic primary was a runaway victory for Boosalis, who was the front-runner from the beginning. She captured 63,833 votes, which was 44% of the primary vote. Domina, a lawyer, finished a distant second with 37,975 votes (26%), and Beutler, a longtime member of the Unicameral, ran third with 31,605 (22%). Boosalis took 77 of Nebraska’s 93 counties. Across the aisle there were eight Republicans in the race: Kermit Brashear, Nancy Hoch, Chuck Loos, Paul Rosberg, Everett Sileven, Monte Taylor, Roger Yant, and Orr.
  • Republican Seats in Jeopardy

    Republican Seats in Jeopardy

    REPUBLICAN SEATS IN JEOPARDY If Republicans are going to regain the Senate majority for 2015, in addition to gaining six new seats they must also hold on to current Republican seats. Below are races where the Club’s PAC believes Republicans stand the greatest chance of losing current Republican-held seats to Democrats. MITCH MCCONNELL (KY) Senator Mitch McConnell has a respectable lifetime rating of 85% on the Club for Growth’s Congressional Scorecard. As Senate Minority Leader, McConnell has shown that his primary allegiance is to the Republican Party, and not to championing pro-growth, limited government principles. However, McConnell is one of the most ardent supporters of the First Amendment and political speech rights. He is favored to win, but this race is still very competitive as his Democrat-opponent Alison Lundergan Grimes’s campaign has been steadily gaining traction. McConnell is the only Republican incumbent with a serious challenger at this point. DAVID PERDUE (GA) Current Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss is retiring, which makes this an open-seat race. Businessman David Perdue surprised a lot of people by winning the Republican nomination, and he did it by harshly criticizing Republican Congressman Jack Kingston on many issues, including earmarks. Perdue has taken some very strong stands on economic policy, including his platform to abolish the income tax and replace it with the Fair Tax, a form of national sales tax. He has a very strong business background and a lot of life experience. He has also pledged to serve no more than two terms. We are hopeful that he would be an above average Republican Senator on economic issues.
