“It’s Complicated”

Body
My personal connection with adoption began nearly 30 years ago. As my mentor Dr Holm and I hurried to the hospital, he told me about the child he and his wife Joanie had recently adopted. Rick loved being a father, even more, it seems to me, than he loved being a doctor. He couldn’t quite believe that he got to parent this amazing little person, that he was blessed not just with Joanie and his sons, but with this precious girl who was now their daughter. His besotted delight so moved me that I knew I wanted to adopt, too.

It’s home to Husker football and the College World Series, our beautiful State Capitol building in Lincoln and our world-famous zoo in Omaha. Our state is made up of rolling plains and prairies, but also bustling cities and peaceful small towns. It boasts the breathtaking natural beauty of the Sandhills, where my husband and I raised our sons.

Keeping Americans Safe

Body
September 13, 2024 It’s been 23 years since radical Islamic terrorists murdered nearly 3,000 Americans on September 11, 2001. The innocent victims we lost on 9/11 weren’t just numbers. They were mothers and fathers, wives and husbands, daughters and sons. Many were heroes who risked their lives to save others. Each year on Patriot’s Day, we recommit as a nation to honoring their memories with our words and our actions.
