Americans don't want war with Iran. We've seen this playbook before: claims of urgency, misrepresented intelligence, and military action that pulls us into another unnecessary and costly war. Congress must pass a War Powers Resolution now before it's too late.

Americans lost over $1,000 last year as a result of Trump’s illegal tariffs. And Republicans in Congress - including Mike Flood - voted again and again to keep them in place. The American people deserve a refund.

This horrific tragedy should never have happened. There should be an immediate and independent investigation because the videos we've seen so far are a far cry from the administration’s claims of “domestic terrorism” and “self-defense.”

Five years ago, we witnessed a dark moment in our nation's history as a violent mob attacked our Capitol and the lawful transfer of presidential power. Democracy only works if we fight for it with our voices and our votes. We need to do both in 2026.

Trump’s policies keep hammering rural America — from Medicaid cuts to a $100K visa fee that blocks rural hospitals from hiring the doctors they depend on. These hospitals were already hanging by a thread. Now they’re getting hit from all sides.

Grateful to the veterans, service members, and families who answered the call to serve. We owe you more than words. We must honor your service with action: ensuring access to the support and opportunity you’ve earned and deserve.

I’m a fifth-generation Nebraskan and lifelong public servant. For 20 years, I served in national security under both Democrats and Republicans. Now, I’m running for Congress. Nebraskans work hard and look out for each other. It’s time Washington did the same.
