Nebraska agriculture committee hears LB1188 to bar state real estate holdings in listed foreign adversaries; NIC warns of millions in transition costs LB1188 would update Nebraska's foreign-owned real estate national security statute and prohibit the state and its political subdivisions from holding interests in real estate in designated foreign adversary nations. Supporters framed the bill as a national-security and ethical safeguard for pension holders; the Nebraska Investment Council said implementing the bill as written would raise fees and incur roughly $5.64 million in transition and ongoing costs.

The report strays far from its funding mandate to dive into U.S.-style culture war issues.

It recommends the government end most #Diversity, #Equity, and #Inclusion (DEI) initiatives and block efforts to encourage #EthicalInvestment of university funds (like #divesting from #FossilFuels).

Within a few days of his investment into our raise, that funding had been matched, helping us pass the 75% milestone on our target of raising £500,000 - we're now close to 90%.

Thank you to Alan for your investment, and indeed to all his fellow investors.
