Proud morning in the Capitol as we celebrated the 168th birthday of the NE National Guard. One of the best things about serving as gov has been the time spent w our Guardsmen & women. Thanks to those who have served & who continue to serve. Happy birthday, @NENationalGuard https://t.co/kpbJPrulJQ — PolitiTweet.org

Was happy to be back at my alma mater this morning to speak with the @WestsideHigh66 football team and congratulate them on a phenomenal season. These impressive young men (and woman!) are achieving great things, on and off the field. — PolitiTweet.org

There’s still plenty of outdoor fun to be had in Nebraska this December. Was thankful for a great duck hunt this weekend. Plus, you can’t beat that view!#TakeEmHunting https://t.co/pOyCnhB5Ww — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations on the recognition, @AGDougPeterson — you deserve it! Thanks for all you do for Nebraska. https://t.co/J1JQtZ3TeP — PolitiTweet.org

Growing NE’s international presence has been a pillar of my administration. We’ve made trade missions to 11 different countries to forge new partnerships and increase investments in the Good Life.  As a result, our state has become its own global brand. https://t.co/XVrsnoSqNJ — PolitiTweet.org

In Nebraska, the crops we grow, livestock we raise, goods we manufacture, and innovations we develop make an impact far beyond our borders.  Nebraskans have long known that.  Increasingly, the world does too. — PolitiTweet.org

Happy to welcome Chairman Kanehana of Kawasaki Heavy Industries back to Nebraska. KHI is a major investor employing 2,700 Nebraskans in our state. I look forward to watching them continue to grow! https://t.co/oikDtRIkZq — PolitiTweet.org

It was great to be with @NEFarmBureau at their annual banquet last night. For eight years, they’ve been a valuable partner on so many issues, from tax cuts to natural disaster recovery. Mark and team, thank you for all you have done – and continue to do—for Nebraska Ag. https://t.co/CyEGXlWz1z — PolitiTweet.org

Motivated by the attack on Pearl Harbor, Americans of all backgrounds came together to defend our homeland and the freedoms we hold dear. Those who died serving our country on December 7, 1941, will never be forgotten. https://t.co/pw09XB0Jhu — PolitiTweet.org

The Christmas tree has arrived at the Nebraska Capitol! Please join the First Lady and me on Sunday, December 11, at 2:00pm for the annual Tree Lighting in the Capitol Rotunda. We hope to see you there. https://t.co/dajZucHniJ — PolitiTweet.org

To-date, @JoeBiden's DOJ has failed to prosecute a single one of these attacks. Instead, they're busy going after parents who attend school board meetings. The DOJ must begin holding those threatening and attacking pro-life organizations accountable. — PolitiTweet.org

Since May, pregnancy resource centers and pro-life organizations have been threatened, vandalized, and even firebombed with Molotov cocktails. It's domestic terrorism, plain and simple. https://t.co/cIjNJEJK9K via @owhnews — PolitiTweet.org

Preferred Popcorn is a true NE success story. HQ’ed in Chapman and 100% farmer-owned, Preferred Popcorn sources popcorn to cinemas around the world. This includes @tohocinemas_m, creator of the Godzilla movies. https://t.co/xrxaGhdUfv — PolitiTweet.org

Now that Japan is back open for business, our teammates at the @NeDeptAg can resume the important work of sharing #NebraskaGrown products abroad. Recognize any of these great #MadeInNE goods? https://t.co/6DVWYj2YNs — PolitiTweet.org

Captain Beef is a popular line of American beef -- sourced exclusively from Nebraska! Thanks, @nippon_steel_ for bringing excellent NE Beef to Japan. https://t.co/FvFVUS0U8M https://t.co/NoiEMI0zd9 — PolitiTweet.org

Nebraska will be a valuable resource as Japan moves to increase its use of ethanol and sustainable aviation fuel. Today, we met with @METI_JPN to discuss all that NE ethanol has to offer and explore opportunities for partnership https://t.co/TwZ5P5KGkt — PolitiTweet.org

If we are to be serious about saving drivers money at the pump, cleaning up the environment, and pursuing domestic energy security, we must embrace year-round E15 as a stable, realistic part of the solution. https://t.co/SlwfNuk7da — PolitiTweet.org

Pete Ricketts @PeteRicketts

Thank you, @SenatorFischer and @SenSasse, for introducing a federal solution to our U.S. energy problem. NE has proven that higher blends of ethanol can be safely used in vehicle models old as 2001, making it an accessible energy source to many Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

We had great discussions with @MHI_Group. NE is positioning itself to become a national hub for hydrogen production, and MHI’s investment in Lincoln-based manufacturer @Monolith_Corp will support innovative emissions-free, commercial-scale production of hydrogen in the Good Life. — PolitiTweet.org

It was a pleasure meeting with @keidanren to discuss all that NE has to offer Japanese investors. The Japan Business Federation represents nearly 1.5k Japanese businesses and is a great partner with the @DevelopNebraska https://t.co/vlYgy13wty — PolitiTweet.org

Japan is the world’s third largest economy. And they’re the largest international investor in Nebraska. We’ve worked to promote Nebraska as a great place for Japanese firms like @Kawasaki, @Itochu, and @MHI_Group to do business. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks for the warm welcome @USAmbJapan! — PolitiTweet.org

There are nearly 500 children in Nebraska still waiting on a forever family. At the State, we are working to find every one of these children a safe, loving home through adoption. Read more in my weekly column: https://t.co/thmdTSs5Bf — PolitiTweet.org

Corporate collaborations are a great way to get Nebraska’s ag products to stand out. Had great discussions with @kewpieusa on ways we can partner. https://t.co/OXn2JEi6Ti — PolitiTweet.org

Since 2015, Nebraska has increased its beef exports to Japan by 88%. In 2021 alone, we exported $471 million in beef to our partner. It’s currently our #2 market for beef exports, and we continue to pursue new opportunities to promote quality beef cuts to Japanese consumers. https://t.co/scwEZV3mgI — PolitiTweet.org

This week, I’m leading a delegation of ag businesses and industry representatives on a trade mission to Tokyo to further strengthen these ties and celebrate expanded partnerships in key markets. https://t.co/HGC1a3fNoF — PolitiTweet.org

Nebraska has a long-established friendship with Japan. Working together, we’ve been able to grow our relationship through trade and cultural exchange. — PolitiTweet.org

The University of Washington just debunked more junk “science” and proved what Nebraskans already know: red meat is good for you. Lazy studies driven by political agendas only undermine the scientific community’s credibility with Americans. https://t.co/tQRmXUTfHG — PolitiTweet.org
