AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Agriculture Relief: Gov. Jim Pillen issued two executive orders to blunt harvest-season diesel costs—letting highway-registered vehicles use untaxed dyed diesel for 90 days and allowing seasonal crop/livestock haulers to run up to 25% over weight limits without extra permits—plus a letter to President Trump urging a 90-day pause on U.S. diesel exports. State Audit Fallout: Lancaster County Commissioner Matt Schulte will hold a livestreamed press conference on Friday after the state auditor alleged nearly $1 billion in accounting errors tied to the Treasurer’s Office, with Treasurer Rachel Garver disputing the impact on missing property tax funds. Immigration Enforcement: DHS expanded its public “Worst of the Worst” deportation database by 5,000 people, pushing the total above 40,000, including thousands of criminal records listed across all states. Federal Courts on Visas: A judge temporarily blocked DHS’s new F and J student visa rules that would have replaced “duration of status” with an “admit until date” system. Campaign Pressure: Reuters reports Republicans are pouring money and high-profile visits into Farm Belt states—including Nebraska—as voters sour on the economy amid high gasoline and diesel prices. Energy Prices (Local): GasBuddy price reports showed low E15 and diesel spots across multiple Nebraska counties in the week ending Sept. 19.
