Committee Chair shared a update from the Federal Advocacy meeting. ESUs 3, 7, 13, 15 were present for the meetings. They attended the Senator breakfast and also were able to meet with each of the Nebraska Senators. There were impressed how our Senators were very attentive to listen to our story. It is advantageous to have ESU Administrators attend this meeting. It was a good experience for those that attend. The value of this meeting comes in the networking.
