Yes, we know who Pillen really is. Before his tax victory was announced, I was reading about him announcing large cuts to the budget, 10% across the board ($500 Million Dollars), all state agencies, workforce reduction,cuts to tax credits for business relocation, film incentives, food donations, and funding for a Veteran’s Justice Program. Expect lay offs and reduced services for Nebraskans. Along with University System Cuts in Lincoln, and eliminating programs like Earth and Atmospheric Science (hope there are no tornados, hurricanes, or torrential rain storms that cause flooding), Statistics, and Fashion Design. Lower Revenues due to LB 347-Change provisions relating to an income tax deduction for dividends received from certain Corporations
