The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is paused in Nebraska beginning Wednesday, October 29th. 150,000 Nebraskans rely on SNAP benefits.

If you or someone you know is in need, community resources are available in both Cass and Lancaster counties.

In small towns and rural communities, young voters say they feel unseen by leaders

Jayden Speed @jaydenlspeed.bsky.social · 11d

We are absolutely seeing this in rural Nebraska. Our elected officials are not concerned about creating opportunities for young Nebraskans to live the good life. We need to elect a new generation of leaders.

Gen Z and millennial voters will make up more than half of the electorate in 2028. They're a crucial bloc for both parties, but many are facing daunting economic realities and feel unseen by leaders.

A snapshot of the wonderful conversations we had yesterday with voters in Nehawka. They’re fired up for a new generation of the good life.

I sat down at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln with Nebraska Nightly to discuss my campaign for Legislature. Stay tuned for our full interview touching on property taxes, public schools, housing costs, and many more issues on the minds of working Nebraskans.

I am so grateful for Susan Lorence and Ray Newton who hosted our game day tailgate and for those in the Plattsmouth community who spent their Saturday with us.

Susan ran a strong campaign for Legislative District 2 in 2018 and I am honored to have her endorsement.

Lincoln was the place to be last night. We had a phenomenal house party hosted by Sharlette Schwenninger.

Lincolnites are excited about our people-powered campaign to recenter Nebraska politics around working people and the future of our state.

Last night I had the opportunity to speak at the October Lincoln Central Labor Union meeting. From electricians to bus drivers, working Nebraskans and organized labor deserve an ally in the Legislature.

Driving across the district today as our farmers are hard at work harvesting the crops that feed the world. It’s truly a beautiful time of year as the amber waves of grain make way for the winter. 🌾

In the News 📰: Honored to have had the chance to speak with two student newspapers about my run for Nebraska’s Legislature!

Jayden Speed @jaydenlspeed.bsky.social · Sep 30

Our government is once again ignoring the will of Nebraska voters. 59% of voters in LD 2 voted to repeal the private school voucher scheme. It’s time to elect a new generation of leadership who will actually respect the will of the people.

Respect Nebraska Voters!

We said NO to vouchers—and we meant it.

We wrapped up a busy weekend at the Plattsmouth Creative Arts Fair and the Lancaster County Torchbearers Dinner.

One elected official at the dinner perfectly summarized what is needed at this moment in time: to pass the guantlet to those who will faithfully serve the people.

Yesterday, I attended a learning session from Conservation Nebraska and their community partners at beautiful Slattery Vintage Estates in Nehawka.

It is great to see so many people committed to good stewardship of our farmland and broader environment.

Team Speed started our day in Weeping Water for their Fall Festival. Great people, old cars, and activities.

Community members expressed their desires for thoughtful leadership, less division, and more solutions to the issues that face everyday Nebraskans.

It’s game day Husker Nation, Go Big Red! ❤️🌽

Happy Constitution Day! Our framers imagined a government where the people could form a more perfect union, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty.

Every generation must take up the call of defending and expanding this effort.

I believe our Legislature must take steps to support farmers by lowering property taxes, supporting new usages for crops, and empowering family farms over big ag corporations.
