In a January 26, 2020 post to her Facebook page Slama said she was ‘done sugar-coating it’ and said the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is systematically

failing to control the Missouri River.

Senator Slama said Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri have united in splitting costs of a study with the Corps of Engi-neers on how to prevent future ÁRRGLQJ��

built a business anyone would be proud to own.

In the nomination letter, it stated that “Emily Nussbaum keeps persevering through a lot RI� KDUG� EORZV� VXFK� DV� ÁRRGHG�studio, broken heater and even a broken sewer line under her historic studio on Stone Street. She understands the importance of supporting her community by having a storefront, so she is constantly investing in her building and business, even though the expensive and exten-sive repairs. Emily also gives back to her community through partnerships with the schools

and children’s youth activities. We are very fortunate to have a local photographer who is pas-sionate about capturing all the special moments in our lives.”

Capitol ViewNebraska Press Association

By: J.J. SchmidtSenator Steve Erdman of Bayard

says his new tax reform proposal (LR300CA) represents “Thinking outside the box on steroids.” Sorry Senator, we opened that box

in 1993 and the Legislature’s Rev-enue Committee held a public hear-ing and quickly closed the box. It was LB195, the Transaction Tax. It looked a lot like your consumption levy act to replace sales, income and property taxes with a single tax levied during every business trans-action. The committee voted 6-0 to kill the bill. The Transaction Tax was brought

to Lincoln by longtime McCook businessman Don Klein who rep-resented Nebraskans for Equal Taxation. He convinced Sens. Cap Dierks of Ewing, Owen Elmer of Indianola and Rex Haberman of Imperial to carry the bill. Sens. Tim Hall of Omaha and Jim Jones of Ed-dyville also signed on. To their credit, the proponents of /%�� DFWXDOO\� SUHVHQWHG� VSHFLÀF�GHÀQLWLRQV�RI�D�WUDQVDFWLRQ�DQG�VXJ-gested that the state establish eight taxing districts to coincide with the existing state Highway Commis-sion Districts. Each district would KDYH�D�ÀYH�PHPEHU�ERDUG�WR�GHWHU-mine how the proceeds would be distributed to political subdivisions in the district. One member of each of the district boards would serve on a state tax commission.The proposed Constitutional

Amendment (LR300CA) says it shall be submitted to the electors with the following ballot language: “A constitutional amendment to prohibit the state and all political subdivisions from imposing any form of taxation other than a single-rate consumption tax and to require the Legislature to enact such a tax.”Aye, there’s the rub. It doesn’t sug-JHVW�KRZ�VDLG� WD[� LV� WR�EH�GHÀQHG��collected or distributed. It simply says the Legislature has to enact such a tax. Isn’t that what lawmak-ers have been arguing all along in this whole “tax reform” discussion? And hasn’t it all boiled down to SURSHUW\� WD[� UHOLHI� DQG� VFKRRO� À-nance? Then there’s the overriding Con-

stitutional issue. Experience says to be very, very careful about what you put into the Constitution, because it’s easier to put something in than it is to remove it. Be very careful about who calls the shots on such changes. Do we trust the electors to authorize a proposal without know-ing the details of implementation? As we await a hearing on the pro-

posal before the 106th Legislature Second Session, let’s look back at the hearing for LB195 before the 93rd Legislature, First Session in March 1993. There were 13 pro-ponents and seven opponents. Two people spoke in a neutral capacity, one of them representing then Gov. Ben Nelson. According to the introducers’

statement of intent, LB195 would have established a one percent tax on every commercial transaction undertaken in the state. Each partic-ipant in the transaction would be re-sponsible for payment of half of the tax. As of January 1, 1994, the bill would have repealed the state sales and income tax and prohibited sub-divisions from levying any property tax. Let me repeat, the committee killed the bill 6-0.In his consumption tax proposal,

Erdman is joined by Sens.: Tom

Brewer of Gordon; Bob Clements of Elmwood; Curt Friesen of Hen-derson; Tim Gragert of Creighton; Steve Halloran of Hastings; Robert Hilkemann, Mike McDonnell and Justin Wayne of Omaha and Dave Murman of Glenvil.Erdman hinted at some ideas he

has for implementation in a Local View opinion piece in the Lincoln Journal Star. His key points are in italics. My thoughts on each follow.All other taxes would be elimi-

nated. The voters did that right be-fore Norbert Tiemann was elected Governor in 1966. The state was left with no source of income and the current tax structure had to be im-plemented in a move that cost him a second term.The consumption tax would never

tax low-income residents. They would get a monthly “pre-bate” check equivalent to the amount of

consumption tax they would pay up to the federal poverty level. What could possibly go wrong with that scenario?The consumption tax would only

tax new goods and services “such as dry cleaners, dog groomers and garbage collectors.” Erdman says “new” is the key word here. So, if you buy a used car and shop at ga-rage sales or thrift stores, you’re tax-free. But wait, what about food?There would be no need for sev-

eral state agencies and business tax incentive programs would be un-necessary, saving the state millions of dollars, he wrote.Again, I ask, what could possibly

go wrong? I mean, besides EVERYTHING!J.L. Schmidt has been covering

Nebraska government and politics since 1979. He has been a registered Independent for 20 years.

Having not watched an entire Chiefs game all season, what a better time to begin than the Super Bowl, right? Would I be good luck or possibly a jinx? Do you believe in superstitions?

Well, to begin with, I am an extremely superstitious person, especially when it comes to sports. In high school, I wore the same t-shirt under my football pads for three seasons. In track, I wore the same pair of racing shoes in meets for all four years. During the Royals World Series win in 2015, Nikki, and I “made/begged” Chelsie Alexander watch all the games at our house for good luck.

What does all this mean? Well, on Sunday night, while watch-ing the game at my sister-in-law’s house, we decided to leave at the end of the third quarter. They are Chiefs fans, and we don’t follow the NFL, so we told them we were bad luck and going home. We continued to watch the game on our phones on the way home from Auburn as the Chiefs rallied from a ��GHÀFLW�WR�SURGXFH�WKH�FLW\·V�ÀUVW�6XSHU�%RZO�ZLQ�LQ��\HDUV��.DQVDV�&LW\�VFRUHG�WKH�ÀQDO��SRLQWV�RI�WKH�JDPH�WR�pull off the improbable win.

Congrats to all the Kansas City fans. I feel like at least part of the reason the Chiefs won was the fact that we left Heath and Cori’s just in time. Superstition told us we weren’t meant to be watching the game with them, so we left. After the game was over, we received a text message from my brother in law thank-ing us for leaving. Of course, I say all of this tongue in cheek, but at the same time superstitions play a large part in sporting events all the time. It doesn’t matter what the sport, athletes all have a routine they follow. Some chew the same kind of gum, and some don’t wash their socks during a streak. The point is, no matter how big or small we all have little things we do that we feel somehow affects the outcome of something. In reality, it doesn’t play a role at all, or does it?

I am so happy for the Chiefs Kingdom and the city of Kansas City. Fifty years is way too long to go in between Super Bowl berths. Maybe this is a start of a dynasty for the Chiefs. With Patrick Mahomes behind Center, anything is possible for the Chiefs. Mahomes didn’t have a great night, but he came up big when it mattered most. A World Series appearance in 2014, a World Series title in 2015, and a Super Bowl in 2020. What DQ�H[FLWLQJ�ODVW�ÀYH�RU�VL[�VHDVRQV�IRU�.DQVDV�&LW\�VSRUWV�IDQV��

Also, congrats to Coach Andy Reid. Reid ranks sixth all-time with 222 wins, having been a head coach in the NFL since 1999. He took the Eagles to the Super Bowl in 2005 and has led the Chiefs since 2013.

RC Arts and Humanities Council membership driveThe Richardson County Arts

and Humanities Council is kick-ing off its annual membership drive. Currently in its 15th sea-son, the council brings the arts to Falls City and the surround-ing area through art exhibits, youth activities, gallery talks, music concerts, and much more. On a regular basis, the council sponsors art exhibits that feature nationally-acclaimed artists. Each gallery opening features a speaker and most often the fea-tured speaker is the artist whose works are on display in the gal-lery.

All exhibits are held in the beautiful Stalder Gallery at the Falls City Library and Arts Center, a gallery that is highly-praised by the artists who have been featured in exhibits. In addition, its curator, Christina Wertenberger, is very respected for her knowledge and abilities.

Currently on display in the Stalder Gallery are artworks from the permanent collection of the Library and Commu-nity Foundation of Richardson County. The artworks will hang in the Gallery through Feb. 8.

The event that follows will be the 69th annual student art contest, sponsored in conjunc-tion with the General Federated Women’s Club. This art contest is open to all students in Rich-

ardson County, grades K-12. The students artwork will hang in the gallery Feb. 18 through March 14. This school-wide competition features approxi-mately 600 works.

“This is just one of the many things that the council does,” Seid said. “But to me, it’s one of the most important, because it lets our local students see their works displayed in a real gal-lery. That kind of encourage-ment is priceless.”

That’s why the membership drive is so important. It helps to make priceless programs pos-sible.

According to Liz Huettner, chairman of the membership committee, memberships are as follows: student membership, $5; single, $15; family, $25; and business/organization, $50.00.

There is no obligation to attend meetings, but the organization holds one meeting per month, at ��S�P��RQ�WKH�ÀUVW�0RQGD\�RI�WKH�month. The meetings are held at the Falls City Library and Arts Center.

For those who would like to be patrons of the council, donations range from the Nicholas level at $1-$49, all the way up to Mi-chelangelo at $3000+.

“Every penny goes to support the arts in Falls City,” Huettner said, “And all donations are tax-deductible.”

To make a donation, or to join the arts council, send a check specifying your intentions to: the Richardson County Arts and Humanities Council, P.O. Box 37, Falls City, NE 68355. Member-ship brochures are also available at the library or the &KDPEHU�2IÀFH�

Chamber Director Amber Holle recognized members who go above and beyond with outstand-ing customer service, superior products, and who give back to the community through the Member of the Month program. Representatives from Miles Ranch, Gatherings Market, True Value, Mutt & Jeff’s, Commu-nity Medical Center, Blue Val-ley Behavioral Health, State Farm, Scholl Lawn and Land-scape, Armbruster Motor Co., Jim Hill’s, Jones Air Condition-ing and Chaney Furniture were asked to stand for a round of ap-plause.

Holle thanked outgoing board

members, RJ Hamilton, and Matt Kirkendall.

“RJ Hamilton has played a be-hind the scenes role in nearly ev-ery Chamber event over the past three years! He’s often the “mus-cle” that helps set up and tear down for our many events. He’s DOVR�VDFULÀFHG�QLJKWV�RI�VOHHS�E\�providing security at Cobble-stone. He has also been an ex-cellent voice for small business owners and what the Chamber can offer to help those individu-als out,” said Holle.

Kirkendall, who has also served on the Chamber board for the past three years, was brought up and thanked, “He’s brought new ideas to the table and lends a helping hand during event prepa-rations,” said Holle.

Three new board members were installed, Kara Ewing, Sarah Bangert, and Hayley McCann. Chamber Director Holle shared some new things planned for the community in 2020, including

an Oktoberfest celebration fea-turing local beers, food, music, and German-themed competi-tions and The Shop Hot program linking together the communities of Horton, Hiawatha, Falls City, Brownville and Auburn for a pro-gressive shopping experience.

Holle said 2019 was an exciting \HDU�IRU�)DOOV�&LW\�ZLWK�WKH�LQÁX[�of tourists visiting town between the Falter Museum and Hot Air Balloon Festival.

“No one could have forecasted the amount of people coming to Falls City for the festival, but you’d better believe this year, we’ll be ready for them,” said Holle

Closing the banquet, Holle and Chamber President Sara Rue thanked everyone for their sup-port.

“I love my job, and the sole rea-son I can say that is because of all our amazing members. I can’t wait to see where 2020 takes us,” said Holle.

Richardson County 4-H’er Willa Fritz participated in the 2020 Ne-braska State 4-H Indoor Archery Championship Saturday, January 25th.
