Some companies are criticizing the compromise for potentially leaving rural Nebraskans behind. Not only are they wrong, but they are the same companies who already have left those rural Nebraskans behind https://t.co/k7LwsCXtZY via @owhnews

Those $1,400 checks are just the start. Add in tax credits and grants to the state, cities, counties and schools, and Nebraska will get at least a $5 billion economic
