Dave Nabity Quotations

If we don't get our act together, we're going to see rural Nebraska see huge declines, because of the way we're managing water. We need to look at a transfer system for water. One of things I'm going to do is put a ton of money in the water transfer system. It will help the rural economy grow and prosper.

What I'd like to be able to do is find out who the criminals are and ship them out.

I have just lost my patience with the criminals and the thugs and the sexual predators. One thing I'll do, I'll find the toughest legislation out there and enact it in Nebraska.

I have a huge amount of respect for Mr. Osborne. But I am the only guy who is going to fight for economic development because I want the tax load to go down.

What we found is that on every income level, you can move to South Dakota and your taxes are cut in half. You can move to Wyoming and save a third.

He is not dealing with illegal immigration and doing everything he can to close the borders and stop the influx of illegal immigration.

Our state government and the bureaucratic agenda is swallowing up the entrepreneurial energy that we need in this state to thrive.

I thought tax relief was for people who paid taxes.

I thought this plan was supposed to offer tax relief for those who paid too much to the government. I'm sure it will help these people, but it is not tax relief, as the governor claims.

We need some tough love in the system. If you're a parent who's drug-addicted, you lose a great deal of your rights. If you're abusive, you lose all your rights. We need to honor foster parents.

Where have technical industry jobs gone? Where have call center and service jobs gone? To China and to India. Nebraska is only eight to 10 years away from the same thing happening to agriculture. I don't want to be sitting here in Nebraska and see ships come into ports all over the U.S. loaded with grain from Argentina selling for 50 cents a bushel less.

We need to draw business and industry that will consume what we grow. I want your commodities consigned here. If I have enough to consume what you grow, then prices are going to stay up.

I've been calling for debates since November of last year.

The state is paying Bostwick (Irrigation District) $2.5 million to purchase water. The governor is doing it so he can look good. A better use of $2.5 million would be putting it into engineering and infrastructure.

All of us were trying to figure out what the heck accredited media means.

A plan for improved tourism and recreation in Nebraska starts with a new vision for Nebraska. It will take a governor who not only inspires citizens with this new vision, but a governor who can strategize and sell this new vision to make it a reality. I believe I am the one who can do this for our state! For more than three years now, I have been developing new creative ideas to expand tourism and recreation.
