During the August work period, U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) traveled across Nebraska to meet with residents and discuss issues affecting their communities. Fischer’s stops included cities such as Omaha, Scottsbluff, Valentine, and Kearney.
“It is the privilege of my lifetime to serve as the U.S. Senator for Nebraska. As I traveled across our state listening to Nebraskans and answering their questions, I was amazed, as always, to see how they are working together to strengthen their communities—not only for today, but for generations to come. I look forward to taking what I learned through the conversations I had during this work period back to Washington, where I will continue to do my part to make the Good Life even better,” Fischer said.
In Ashland, Fischer participated in the 2025 Federal Legislative Summit alongside members of the Nebraska Delegation. The event was hosted by several local chambers of commerce.
At Mead’s University of Nebraska-Lincoln Eastern Nebraska Research, Extension and Education Center, Fischer joined a roundtable discussion with U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins and agricultural industry representatives.
Fischer also visited several community organizations and businesses throughout her travels. In Ainsworth she toured a new child development center and answered questions at a local radio station. Stops in Gordon included McDonald Apiculture; in Chadron she met with Northwest Community Action Partnership and visited an early childhood education facility.
