@POTUS, @VP, @SecKennedy, @DrOzCMS, & @ACF_Adams have been strong partners in getting waste, fraud, and abuse out of our taxpayer-funded public assistance programs. They’ve been diligent in giving state governments like ours the tools we need to act.
So when I learned that due to a loophole left by Congress, cash welfare could be spent on things like alcohol, tobacco, porn, tattoos, psychic and fortune-telling services, and luxury watches, I signed an Executive Order to stop it. And with this prompt approval from our federal partners, Nebraska is one of the first states to end this waste.
The federal government has approved Nebraska’s request to bar temporary financial assistance for tobacco, tattoos, psychic readings, video games and other “inappropriate and nonessential purchases.” nebraskaexaminer.com/2026/10…

Age should never determine the respect someone receives. Every generation brings experiences, perspectives and contributions that strengthen our communities.
Respect belongs at every age.💙
