  • Proactive and Patient Managing Immigration and Demographic Change in 2 Rural Nebraska Communities
    GETTY SANGOSTI IMAGES/RJ Proactive and Patient Managing Immigration and Demographic Change in 2 Rural Nebraska Communities By Sara McElmurry November 2018 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Proactive and Patient Managing Immigration and Demographic Change in 2 Rural Nebraska Communities By Sara McElmurry November 2018 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 3 Old traditions, new demographics 5 Twin trends drive change in rural Nebraska 14 Contemporary successes and challenges 19 A road map for inclusion 23 Conclusion: Looking ahead 24 About the author and acknowledgments 25 Endnotes Introduction and summary Lexington and Madison—rural Nebraska towns of 10,090 and 2,634 residents, respec- tively—are now enjoying the fruits of three decades of demographic transformation that has simultaneously advanced and challenged their communities. The two towns had a combined foreign-born adult population of just 124 in the 1990 census. Today, three decades after the opening of meatpacking plants in both communities, nearly half of Lexington’s adult population was born outside the United States, as was one-third of the adult population of Madison. Newcomers, hailing from all corners of the world, accounted for 100 percent of both towns’ population growth from 1990 to 2016.1 This report looks beyond the numbers to understand how Lexington and Madison— communities selected for study based on their rurality,2 rapid demographic change, and resulting resilience—have adapted to newcomers. Informed by conversations with more than 70 stakeholders in local government, education, faith, business, and nonprofit and civic organizations, along with lifelong residents and newcomers, this report tells the story of change and the successful management of that change in both towns.3 It explores the effectiveness of intentional strategies taken by key institutions, the successes and decentralized efforts of dedicated civic leaders, and the power of unique characteristics innate to small towns.

Nebraska is also unique in having the only state legislature that is a unicameral and non-partisan.

Lincoln, the state’s capital, is home to more than 280,000 residents. Much of the state is rural, with more than 90% of Nebraska’s cities and towns having fewer than 3,000 people.

STUART- A PROSECUTOR'S VIEW OF PRE-TRIAL RESTRAINTS ON THE PRESS Milton R. Larson* and John P. Murphy** Mr. Larson prosecuted the criminal case which formed the fac- tual setting for the United States Supreme Court decision in Nebraska Press Association v. Stuart. In this article, the authors explain the factors which prompted a pre-trial restrainingorder on publicity. They discuss the alternatives to prior restraints authorized by the Court and explain why they would have been ineffective in this case. Finally, they contend that the Stuart decision effectively eliminates all "gags" on the press, at least in coverage of criminal proceedings. Confusion has plagued the legal community and the media in recent years concerning the protection to be accorded conflicting constitutional rights arising in criminal jury trials which stimu- late unusual public interest and extensive media coverage.
