• 4/7/2026Hitler finds out about the 2026 Nebraska cloture vote failure
| 00:00 - 00:03 | The Appropriations Committee has finalized the preliminary budget |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | LB 1071 will reduce agency spending |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | and the cash transfers in LB 1072 are good to go |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Combined with some modest revenue bills |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | and some economic development tax credit cutbacks we are confident that the gap has been closed |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Excellent, once we have cloture |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | on the budget bills we can move on to other priorities. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Uh sir... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | the cloture vote |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | the cloture vote failed by the largest margin in recent history |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | cloture is not possible at this time |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | Everybody out except Clements, BvG, Jacobson, and Juarez |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | I told you this would happen! |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | Nobody wants to own this budget in an election year! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | Everybody loves tax breaks but no-one wants to pay for them! |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | This is last session all over again |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | Except this time we starting hundreds of millions behind |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | How is it that every year we make budget cuts and every year there is a deficit! |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | Something isn't adding up |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | and no-one seems to know when revenue growth will fix it |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | Sir I must disagree we have made great forecasting strides |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | Great strides! Its been updated like what six times! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | Sir there have been tons of changes at the federal level |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Oh and that makes it better, the people of Nebraska are sick of this |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | and I can't blame them! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | Year after year we are faced with a deficit |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | and no amount of cuts seems to fix it! |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | It feels like one step forward 400 million steps back! |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | What am I supposed to do without budget cloture, |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | are we just going to keep passing A-Bills and hope for the best!? |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | Especially when no-one is willing to back down an inch. |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | If we don't get cloture on this we might as well prepare for special session! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | I just put down a deposit on an RV |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | They don't just give those back, its not refundable |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | and what of property tax relief, I ran my whole campaign on that! |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | Is there any reduction in property tax? |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | Because if there isn't I'll never hear the end of it from my donors |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | and I doubt voters will be kind at the doors when this comes up |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Look I get it cutting the budget sucks |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | But we have a balanced budget constiutional requirement |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | It's like the one thing we actually have to do |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | Its ok, they can't make us come back for a speical session |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | If we can't get this across the finish line we're finished |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | This is unbearable, I can't stay in this building any longer. |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | We'll need to make concessions |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | I just don't have the fight in me |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | At least next year will be easier, so long as no-one sets the middle east on fire |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | then we're be in real s*** |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | This job isn't worth 13k a year |
