"Voters Didn't Know What They Were Thinking" | Respect Nebraska Voters

Jo Giles, executive director of the Women's Fund of Omaha and a sponsor of the Respect Nebraska Voters campaign, joins the show to discuss Nebraska's ballot initiative process and the growing debate over lawmakers changing voter-approved laws. We talk about the paid sick leave measure approved by voters in 2024, subsequent legislative changes to that law, and the campaign's proposal to make it more difficult for the Legislature to alter ballot measures passed by Nebraskans. Learn more about the Respect Nebraska Voters ballot campaign at https://respectnevoters.org/⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻Support the show by becoming a ‘Friend of Dan’ on Patreon - https://patreon.com/thedanparsonsshow⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻Additional music provided by friend of the show Josh Hoyer & Soul Colossal, support them at: https://www.joshhoyer.com/⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻Connect with The Dan Parsons Show on Social Media:- TikTok - https://tiktok.com/@thedanparsonsshow- Instagram - https://instagram.com/thedanparsonsshow- Twitter - https://x.com/DanParsonsShow2- Facebook - https://facebook.com/TheDanParsonsShow⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻On the go?
