GOVERNOR’S WELCOME Dear Friends: Thank you for your continued involvement in the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce & Industry and in your local communities.

The commitment of so many individuals in communities all across the state is what makes Nebraska the best place in the world to live, work, and raise a family.

My administration’s vision is to grow Nebraska. Part of growing Nebraska involves running our state government more like a business. We’re constantly working to improve operations, increase efficiency and constantly focus on the customer, just like businesses do. By changing how government operates, we’re opening more opportunities for every Nebraskan.

One area of focus has been to expand opportunities for Nebraska products and services. We have put a renewed emphasis on domestic and foreign trade missions, which has resulted in millions of dollars in new investments and agreements for purchase of Nebraska commodities. Meeting personally with investors and trading partners provides an opportunity to bolster new partnerships abroad and create job opportunities here at home.

We’re also expanding opportunities for individuals. We developed the first-inthe-nation Reemployment Program at the Department of Labor to connect job seekers with good-paying jobs. Individuals receiving unemployment benefits must now participate in the program, which includes job coaching and creating a resume that is searchable by employers. In 2016, Nebraska paid out

$13.75 million less in unemployment benefits than in 2015 as people got back to work faster. In the Department of Health and Human Services, we have been successful at reducing dependency on SNAP benefits with a new program that is helping our food stamp families find better job opportunities. The program was originally piloted in Grand Island and it has been expanded to Hastings and Columbus due to its initial success.

To increase efficiency, my chief information officer has centralized IT services for 90 counties and Nebraska state agencies. Their work has resulted in faster response times and has reduced county network costs by 20 percent. The Center of Operational Excellence has been hard at work, training all state employees in the basics of Lean Six Sigma and encouraging them to find and eliminate waste in their agencies. We continue to make improvements at the Department of Environmental Quality, including putting permit applications online, dramatically reducing the time to issue a permit from weeks or months to days.

These changes are creating an environment in which business can flourish. Nebraska is the best state in the Union regarding our regulatory environment and the third best state for business, according to Forbes. Even though we’re already very good, we can always do better. This push for continual improvement is why I ordered a review of all red tape and regulations in Nebraska. Our state agencies are auditing themselves and finding all the rules that are unnecessary for the growth of Nebraska.

Red tape and regulations aren’t the only things that hinder business, however. Taxes also stunt our growth. My administration is constantly looking for ways to ease the tax burden on Nebraskans. I’m happy to announce that we’ve been able to provide $848 million in tax relief for Nebraska property owners through the Property Tax Credit Relief Fund since 2015. These tax cuts have helped us reach over 1 million non-farm jobs in Nebraska, a record level. Finding more ways to cut taxes will continue to fuel our economic engine.

This budget cycle, revenues continue to fall short of growth projections. This is in large part due to decreased farm income. My administration has worked with state agencies to exercise additional spending restraint to weather this storm. Restraint is critical so that we can hold the line on taxes and pass the tax reform we need to keep the Good Life growing in the future.

Nebraska’s business leaders and attractive business climate contribute to our state’s outstanding quality of life. I look forward to working with each of you to keep our focus on policies that will grow Nebraska now and into the future.

Thank you for your continued investment in our great state.

Sincerely, Pete Ricketts Governor

CHAIRMAN’S WELCOME Dear Nebraska Chamber Member: It is an honor to help lead Nebraska’s largest statewide business organization during such an important time in our history.

While there are challenges ahead, 2018 also presents great opportunities for our business community to thrive and grow. The Nebraska Chamber of Commerce and Industry, which has always provided trusted leadership for our state, will continue to be part of the answer.

The State Chamber has established a welltuned, multi-faceted organization to carry out its mission. That mission is straightforward: Improve Nebraska’s business climate, enhance our free-enterprise system and represent the interests of our approximately 2,000 members.

Currently in its 106th year, the Nebraska Chamber is led by professional staff members who appreciate that they are part a respected organization. As a Chamber member, you should be proud to be part of an association that has such a powerful voice.

With a membership roster that includes businesses of all sizes and types – and

members in more than 150 communities statewide – the State Chamber prides itself on being the voice of business before the legislature and executive branch. In this era of term limits, the Nebraska Chamber makes certain that the business perspective is always considered by policymakers.

As market president at First National Bank, I have seen firsthand how effective the Nebraska Chamber is in its advocacy and messaging. While businesses will perpetually face challenges, the State Chamber aims to lessen your burdens by promoting job creation, business growth, a more competitive tax climate, and more opportunities for all Nebraskans.

A long list of recent pro-business accomplishments and an improved business environment are a testament to the efforts of your Nebraska Chamber. But we are not relying on past success. Each new legislative session brings different opportunities and challenges.

Whether through public policy, political engagement, membership development, communications or member services, the Chamber is constantly seeking ways it can

better serve the needs of our members.

I want to take a moment to recognize Nebraska Chamber President Barry Kennedy, who has announced his retirement set for June 30, 2018. With 32 years of service to the State Chamber – including 18 years as president – Barry has played a vital role in making Nebraska a better place to do business. Our state is stronger, our economy more resilient because of his leadership. As of the publishing deadline for this directory, the State Chamber Board of Directors had established a search committee to find his replacement.

Again, thank you for your membership and participation. The Chamber is counting on your continued support and involvement to ensure the future success of Nebraska’s business community.

THE HISTORY & MISSION OF THE NEBRASKA CHAMBER

he State Chamber’s history dates back to Nov. 14-15, 1912. That is when a meeting of business executives at the former Rome Hotel in Omaha founded the Nebraska Manufacturers Association. In 1937, the organization’s membership was broadened and its name changed to Associated Industries of Nebraska.

In 1960, the association helped organize the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce.

Six years later, the two groups merged to become the Nebraska Association of Commerce & Industry (NACI). The NACI acronym was used for more than 20 years.

At the organization’s 76th annual meeting, held in February 1988, members ratified the name change to the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce & Industry. This helped clarify that the organization was clearly Nebraska’s state chamber of commerce, while also upholding the organization’s roots and strong ties to the manufacturing sector.

Today, more than a century later, the Nebraska Chamber represents thousands of corporate members statewide, with businesses of every variety and size as members. The State Chamber also has more than 60 local chambers of commerce as members, along with more than 75 state-level trade and professional associations.

Located a half-block from the historic Nebraska State Capitol, the Chamber’s staff works effectively with Nebraska lawmakers, as well as state agencies, on issues affecting business.

WHAT WE DO BEST When the Nebraska Legislature is in session, the State Chamber’s primary focus is on representing the business community on major issues before the unicameral.

The Chamber’s registered lobbyists lead the organization’s efforts to educate state lawmakers on business-related legislation, ensuring that policymakers know the ramifications of bills being considered.

The State Chamber keeps its members regularly informed on legislative activities and bills that could affect the business community. Chamber members receive a weekly legislative report – a thorough summary of major bills, as well as recent actions at the capitol. The Chamber’s weekly legislative service contains specific information on crucial votes, in addition to the status of bills before the legislature, upcoming hearing dates and other pertinent information.

The State Chamber also keeps its members updated via its popular “News Update” (sent electronically to

all members) and its newsletter, “The Executive,”as well as with electronic alerts on key votes. The Chamber employs timely methods to keep its members informed about the latest developments and to help them stay in touch with elected leaders.

The Nebraska Chamber’s Public Affairs Council, composed of registered lobbyists of member companies and associations, meets every week during the legislative session to coordinate activity and share information vital to the business community. Local chambers of commerce take part in the State Chamber’s legislative conference calls held frequently during the session.

The State Chamber Annual Meeting and Nebraska Business Hall of Fame Banquet, held in the early weeks of the legislative session, allows members to discuss their priorities with the state’s decision makers.

After state lawmakers conclude their session, Nebraska Chamber members receive a complete summary of the session, a voting record examining key votes of all state senators and information regarding important ongoing issues.

Every autumn, the State Chamber coordinates a series of legislative forums with approximately 30 local chambers of commerce across Nebraska. State senators and legislative candidates typically participate in these forums, and the Nebraska Chamber staff conducts a survey of local business leaders to gather their feedback on business conditions and concerns.

The State Chamber’s activities are not limited to the Nebraska Legislature only.

The staff is also in close contact with Nebraska’s federal delegation and their aides. Every spring, the Nebraska Chamber conducts a Washington, D.C., Fly-In, in which any State Chamber member may participate. In addition, in recent years,

the Nebraska Chamber has partnered with the Lincoln and Omaha chambers to host the popular Federal Legislative Summit at the Strategic Air Command & Aerospace Museum near Ashland, providing the congressional delegation an opportunity to give a group update to the chamber community.

MEMBER PARTICIPATION The State Chamber’s long history of accomplishments has been made possible by the interest and participation of its members. Whether by serving on the Nebraska Chamber Board of Directors or one of the Chamber’s policy councils, or simply attending a Chamber-sponsored event, member participation is a hallmark of our organization.

State Chamber policy councils meet to develop policies on issues affecting Nebraska businesses. The State Chamber Political Action Committee allows the State Chamber take a leadership role in state politics, focusing on recruitment and support of business-friendly candidates, while also helping energize the employees of Nebraska businesses to vote.

THE NEBRASKA CHAMBER MEANS BUSINESS

members agreed the Nebraska Chamber is effective in representing the state’s business community.

Four registered lobbyists lead the Chamber’s efforts to educate state lawmakers on key issues. The Chamber’s professional staff communicates with state senators, testifies before legislative committees, and monitors activity on the unicameral floor and in the legislative committees.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS: In the 2017 session of the Nebraska Legislature, more than 670 bills were introduced. In total, your Nebraska Chamber either took positions on or monitored roughly 250 measures due to their potential impact on businesses. The session brought some notable achievements for the business community, including State Chambersupported bills such as: ❚ LB161: Extends the Nebraska Advantage Act credit carryover time for businesses making significant capital

investments and creating several high paying jobs. ❚ LB203: Curbs abuse of the state’s Unemployment Insurance program by tightening restrictions of benefits for those who leave a job without good cause, saving an estimated $3.7 million in 2018 and $5 million in 2019. ❚ LB271: Reduces red tape for state transportation infrastructure projects, thereby expediting projects and saving as much as $19 million annually. ❚ LB518: Establishes new funding sources for grants to help address Nebraska’s workforce housing shortages. ❚ LB641: Establishes a matching grant program to attract more early-stage bioscience startups to Nebraska.

The Nebraska Chamber works equally as hard to defeat or amend harmful proposals. Last year, there were a number of such bills in the Legislature. Fortunately, none passed. Among the more menacing bills were:

T

he Nebraska Chamber of Commerce and Industry is Nebraska’s largest statewide business association.

Put simply, the Chamber exists to make Nebraska an even better place to do business.

Headquartered half-a-block west of the state capitol, the Chamber’s most important activity is representing the business community on major issues of interest before the Nebraska Unicameral.

Generally speaking, the State Chamber follows issues and legislation addressing five key areas: ❚ Economic development ❚ Workforce ❚ Job creation and business investment ❚ Taxes ❚ Labor law and other regulations facing employers A recent survey revealed that the Chamber’s legislative activity and updates were very important to 90 percent of the members – and more than 97 percent of

6 w w w . n e b r a s k ac ham b er.c om NENEBCW18 design.indd 6

12/27/2017 11:23:41 AM

❚ LB52: Would impose a 5.5 precent state tax on loan interest, costing individuals and businesses several hundred million dollars annually and crippling the state’s economy. ❚ LB126, LB467 & LB572: Would halt important business incentives, including

the Nebraska Advantage Act. ❚ LB312 & LB563: Would eliminate several sales tax exemptions that are important to businesses. ❚ LB313: Would increase Nebraska’s sales tax rate by 18 percent, raising the current 5.5 percent rate to 6.5 percent. ❚ LB373: Would repeal the roadsfunding Build Nebraska Act (LB84), while terminating many pro-business tax provisions. This bill would raise taxes by more than $1.2 billion by 2020. ❚ LB468: Would amend and/or eliminate recent tax code improvements, including indexing of income tax brackets.

Over the past decade, the State Chamber has also become much more active in monitoring federal activities. The Nebraska Chamber is the state affiliate of two national organizations: the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers.

In a recent survey, 98 percent of the members said they would recommend joining the Nebraska Chamber to a nonmember business. By being a leader in advocacy for the business community, the Nebraska Chamber works on behalf of its members, which includes businesses of all sizes and sectors, as well as local chambers of commerce and their communities.

LEADERSHIP NEBRASKA

T

he State Chamber’s Leadership Nebraska is aimed at professionals who have demonstrated community and leadership experience. It was designed specifically to help these existing and emerging leaders gain more in-depth knowledge about the issues facing Nebraska’s economy, employers and communities.

The year-long program consists of six sessions held across the state. Each session covers key topics in economic development, agriculture, education, health care and government and policy. And every session features speakers who are recognized leaders in their specific fields; discussion and debate on current issues;

N

ebraska is one of the best places on earth to live, work and play.

We have a growing economy that offers many career opportunities for young professionals, seasoned professionals and skilled workers. Just as importantly, Nebraska has an abundance of activities for families and individuals of all ages.

Nebraskans aren’t the type to rest on our laurels. We work hard and put significant resources towards making Nebraska a special place, and we will continue to make investments in creating more opportunities for those who make Nebraska their home.

While Nebraska is a pro-business state with a tremendous quality of life, it also has the unfortunate reputation of being a high tax state that is experiencing a workforce shortage.

The State Chamber’s long-range planning program, Vision Nebraska, has entered the execution phase of its life cycle. Using input from Chamber members and issue experts, we have identified some of the most pressing statewide challenges, as

tours to provide first-hand experience; and an opportunity to experience the diversity of Nebraska.

The program is open to all adult residents of the state. Leadership Nebraska selects 25-30 participants each year with an emphasis on creating a diverse group geographically, as well as occupationally.

Currently, there are more than 200 Leadership Nebraska alumni across the state – an impressive statewide network that benefits participants long after graduation from the program.

The State Chamber’s Leadership Nebraska receives support from the Leadership Nebraska fund, which is

affiliated with the Nebraska Community Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization.

Oversight for the program is provided by an alumni advisory council.

VISION NEBRASKA We will work with Chamber members, local chambers, the governor, the legislature and other key stakeholders to advance an agenda that focuses on creating well-paying careers, while retaining our employment base around the state.

We will also focus on the cost of doing business.

State Chamber members are optimistic about their businesses and our state. We encourage you to participate in this unique process. Please contact us if we can help your business succeed, or if you have ideas to offer. well as creative ways to address them through the use of programmatic and policy initiatives.

As with all initiatives, it is important to prioritize our efforts. The State Chamber will focus its long range efforts on four key pillars: ❚ Business climate ❚ Education and talent supply ❚ Innovation and economic development ❚ Infrastructure and growth

NEBRASKA: A PRO-BUSINESS, PRO-GROWTH CLIMATE GROW YOUR OPERATIONS IN NEBRASKA Located in the heart of the heartland, Nebraska is home to a strong freemarket system. As a result, Nebraska is also home to some of America’s leading businesses and industries – from internet and computer technology, advanced manufacturing, agribusiness and business services, to insurance and banking, transportation, health care and biosciences.

Over the decades, Nebraska’s business leaders, chambers of commerce and policymakers have worked hard to improve our state’s economic competitiveness and diversify our economy. In recent years, Nebraska has become recognized nationally and globally for its pro-business climate.

Fueled by a dedicated and talented workforce, Nebraska boasts one of the lowest jobless rates in the United States.

A strong entrepreneurial spirit resides here, as small businesses remain a key component to the state’s overall well-being.

At the same time, Nebraska’s business community is bolstered with the presence of national and international headquarters of many well-known names, including several Fortune 1000 companies such as Berkshire Hathaway, Union Pacific Corporation, Peter Kiewit Sons, TD Ameritrade, West Corporation, Werner Enterprises, Valmont Industries, Green Plains Renewable Energy and Mutual of Omaha.

When considering factors such as business costs, labor, regulations, legal climate, economic climate and quality of life, Nebraska has few peers. According to the national comparisons, Nebraska is extremely competitive in the areas of regulatory environment, quality of life and overall business costs – which include labor and energy. Nebraska also receives high marks for its economic development incentives.

BEST IN NATION FOR REGULATIONS It’s no wonder that experts like those at Forbes magazine and Pollina Corporate Real Estate have ranked Nebraska as one of America’s best states in which to do business.

In fact, Nebraska has been in the top 10 of Forbes’ “Best States for Business” study for the past decade and was ranked third best overall in both 2015 and 2016.

Of the six main categories used by Forbes, Nebraska is a top-10 performer in three of them – regulatory climate, quality of life and business costs. Most notably, the business publication ranked Nebraska No.

1 for regulatory climate, which includes labor laws, insurance coverage mandates, occupational licensing, tort system, right-towork status and business tax incentives.

Unemployment insurance tax is another area in which Nebraska is a leader. The Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council in 2017 ranked Nebraska No. 5 in this important category – a key cost of doing business because employers pay 100 percent unemployment insurance costs.

With the recent enactment of Chambersupported legislation (LB203) to help curb the abuse of jobless benefits, Nebraska’s low unemployment tax burden is likely to go even lower.

NEBRASKA’S BUSINESS INCENTIVES The Nebraska Chamber has worked hard to improve the state’s competitiveness. A key factor for Nebraska’s solid standing in many rankings is the Nebraska Advantage Act, the state’s primary pro-business incentives program.

Since its implementation in 2006, the Nebraska Advantage Act has played a role in creating thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in capital investments. Also since 2006, Nebraska has maintained one of the

lowest jobless rates in the nation, while the state GDP has exceeded the U.S. average.

It’s important to note that Nebraska’s business incentives are not just for large companies. In fact, of the 535 businesses that have applied for Nebraska Advantage incentives, approximately 75 percent had fewer than 100 employees – and many were located in rural areas.

To learn more about the Nebraska Advantage Act incentives program, visit the Department of Economic Development’s site at www.opportunity.nebraska.gov.

Several years ago, the Cornhusker State implemented a unique program to improve its workforce and retain its young people.

The Intern Nebraska (InternNE) program – administered by the Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED) – provides financial assistance to businesses that create new internships. Interns obtain valuable experience, while businesses develop future employees. Research shows that more than 50 percent of interns go on to become full-time employees at their place of internship, so internships help ensure that communities and businesses grow.

For a description of InternNE’s rules and requirements, contact DED at (402) 4711559 or ded.InternNE@nebraska.gov or visit www.internne.com.

NEBRASKA’S GOOD LIFE GETS NOTICED

he secret is out. Nebraska and its communities continue to score high marks in national comparisons for affordability and quality of life.

One example is a 2017 study that found Nebraska’s retirement environment was top in the nation, according to analysis conducted by LPL Financial.

For those on the other end of the career spectrum – those under 35 – a 2017 study by financial website MoneyRates.com found that Nebraska is among the top states for millennials, ranking the Cornhusker State third best overall. The analysis noted that Nebraska also scored top 10 rankings for young adult employment and residential rental affordability.

Then there is the issue of happiness, as a recent study by WalletHub.com found Nebraska to be one of America’s happiest states. Analysts at the financial website considered several factors such as financial security, physical and emotional health, personal purpose and social connectivity. In all, nearly 30 key metrics were included. The Cornhusker State scored very high marks in the category of work environment, which includes commute times, personal earnings adjusted by cost of living, jobless rates, and job security.

W

Another 2017 study, this one by U.S. News & World Report, found that Nebraska was among the five most affordable states.

This followed Forbes’ report that deemed Nebraska to be one of America’s top states for quality of life – thanks to the state’s low crime rates, clean environment, low stress levels, accessible and affordable health care and low cost of living. Moreover, the state’s outdoor attractions, urban entertainment, small-town charm and low jobless rate are tremendous attributes.

A CNBC study ranked Nebraska’s education system fifth best overall in 2017. The study considered the state’s K-12 public schools, Nebraska’s community colleges and other higher education

institutions.

Nebraska’s major cities continue to score high marks, as well. Consider that a recent study of major U.S. cities by NerdWallet ranked Lincoln and Omaha in the best five for overall lifestyle. The website looked at income and health benefits, local economic strength and work-life balance.

In a world that is increasingly turbulent and tumultuous – with congested areas where the American dream may seem unaffordable or unattainable – Nebraska stands out in a positive way.

Put simply, Nebraska offers the perfect blend of opportunity, stability and affordability.

NEBRASKA’S HIGHER EDUCATION

ith an increasing proportion of jobs requiring an advanced education, the state depends on the three-campus University of Nebraska, three other state colleges, five community colleges and more than a dozen private colleges to supply its businesses with trained workers -- and to prepare its citizens for satisfying careers.

Nationally famous for its Big Ten athletic achievements, the 26,000-student University of Nebraska--Lincoln is also an educational and research institution often rated among the nation’s best in delivering most “bang for the buck” when paying for a college education. UNL’s Jeffrey S. Raikes School of Computer Science and Management develops leaders for this era of information technology and business globalization.

The University of Nebraska-Omaha provides an urban student environment for another 15,000 students, including almost 900 from other countries.

Also in Omaha, the University of Nebraska Medical Center serves 3,700 students in more than two dozen programs.

Its physician-assistant program was ranked ninth in the nation by U.S. News & World Report, and its primary-care program was

ranked 17th.

Yet a third part of the university system is the University of Nebraska--Kearney, with 7,000 students, including 1,000 in its graduate programs.

Also operated by the state for fouryear students and graduate students are Chadron State College in Chadron, Peru State College in Peru and Wayne State College in Wayne.

Meanwhile, the state’s five community colleges offer associate degrees to start

a student off on higher education at a low price while also offering technical training in fields such as nursing and truck driving.

“Surveys show that a shortage of trained workers is the No. 1 issue for Nebraska businesses,” according to Jamie Karl, vice president of the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce & Industry. He said the community colleges provide a key tool in closing that gap by training Nebraskans in 21st-century skills.

The system includes:

HEALTH CARE: A KEY TO NEBRASKA’S GOOD LIFE

ebraska residents are fortunate to be served by an outstanding health care community made up of a diverse assortment of medical providers. In fact, in many national comparisons, Nebraska’s high marks for quality of life are often due to its strong health care industry.

In every part of the state, patients have ready access to a collection of state-of-the-art hospitals, clinics, surgery centers, specialty facilities and medical practices offering a wide variety of services. From primary care, dental and orthopedics, to senior care, cardiology and physical therapy, Nebraska hosts doctors in virtually every medical field.

Consider the following facts: ❚ In total, Nebraska is home to approximately 90 hospitals with nearly 7,000 beds. Every day, approximately 11,000 patients receive service in Nebraska hospitals. ❚ Hospitals employ 43,000 Nebraskans. The annual hospital payroll in Nebraska is around $2.5 billion. ❚ Approximately 4,500 doctors are active in the state – a number that continues to grow thanks to notable programs at medical schools like the University of Nebraska Medical Center.

The health care sector is among the largest industry clusters in the state; it is not only represented by hospitals and other medical facilities, but also includes drug and medical equipment/device manufacturers and distributors, social service organizations and insurance providers.

The state is highly regarded for its commitment to supplying high-quality medical care at a lower cost. In fact, according to the Nebraska Department of Economic Development, the average daily cost of a hospital stay is 27 percent lower than the U.S. average. In addition, the state prides itself on furnishing its residents with one of the highest hospital bed-to-population ratios in the country.

Nebraska’s health care community continues its tradition of excellence, supplying patients young and old with some of the nation’s most advanced and high-tech programs, services and facilities. Quality health care truly is one of the keys to Nebraska’s “good life.” ❚ Central Community College, serving 25 counties from campuses in Columbus, Grand Island and Hastings plus extended centers at Holdrege, Kearney and Lexington. ❚ Metropolitan Community College serving Omaha and its suburbs from eight locations. ❚ Mid-Plains Community College has two main campuses in North Platte and one in McCook, plus extended campuses in Broken Bow, Imperial, Oglalla and Valentine. ❚ Northeast Nebraska Community College, based in Norfolk, also has extended campuses in West Point, O’Neill and South Sioux City. ❚ Western Nebraska Community College, in the state’s panhandle, has campuses in Alliance, Scottsbluff and Sidney.

Private and church-related colleges include: ❚ Bellevue University in Bellevue ❚ Bryan College of Health Sciences in Lincoln ❚ Clarkson College in Omaha ❚ College of Saint Mary in Omaha ❚ Concordia University in Seward ❚ Creighton University in Omaha ❚ Doane University in Crete ❚ Hastings College in Hastings ❚ Midland University in Fremont ❚ Nebraska Christian College in Papillon ❚ Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln

NEBRASKA’S RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE

T

he transportation sector and the infrastructure that supports it are vital to Nebraska’s economy and quality of life. Reliable, modern infrastructure makes possible our daily commute to work, our tourism industry and our supply of food and products that our families need and want.

Consider, for example, that trucks, trains, planes and ships move more than 54 tons of freight annually for every one of us.

Unfortunately, the capacity of America’s infrastructure is currently considered inadequate to meet present-day needs, and the demand for new and improved infrastructure is expected to soar.

Recently, the U.S. Department of Transportation released new freight projections predicting a 40 percent increase in the amount of freight moving on the U.S. transportation network over the next three decades. This is one more example of why investments in infrastructure are critical to our economic health and quality of life.

Transportation has always been a key economic driver for Nebraska, going back to the days of the Great Platte River Road – a superhighway in its day. Today the Cornhusker State sits at the heart of the great NAFTA Trade and Transportation Corridor between Canada and Mexico, and is easily linked to destinations throughout the United States.

Obviously, Nebraska is well served by two Class I rail systems (BNSF and Union Pacific) and 10 freight railroads, which operate more than 3,200 miles of track throughout the state. Freight railroads are unique in that they own, build, maintain and pay for themselves. In Nebraska, this includes estimated investments of $110 million by BNSF and $79 million by Union Pacific Railroad last year alone – a key reason why the business community must support policies that encourage freight railroads to continue to invest.

When it comes to our highways, Nebraska holds almost 24,000 miles of hard-surfaced roads. Interstate 80 spans 482 miles from one end of the state to the other. Goods shipped by truck from Nebraska can reach approximately 26 percent of the U.S. population within one day; in two days, goods can reach roughly 90 percent of the U.S. population.

This is why the Nebraska Chamber in 2016 was a strong supporter of LB960.

The law created a state infrastructure bank to accelerate completion of approximately 150 unfinished miles of four-lane expressways, which will greatly enhance the movement of goods for both businesses and consumers. Business leaders played a key role in the passage of LB960. By dedicating $450 million over 17 years, the infrastructure bank will help keep Nebraska on the cutting edge of infrastructure funding. It will also allow the Nebraska Roads Department to use a different bidding process (design-build) to complete projects more efficiently and quickly.

The passage of the infrastructure bank plan came just five years after Nebraska policymakers enacted LB84, a creative law that dedicates a quarter cent of the state’s 5.5 percent sales tax to roads funding.

This approach has provided Nebraska with a more reliable method of highway funding in an era that would otherwise see declining fuel tax revenues. LB84 generates an additional $60 million to $70 million a year for roads, according to estimates.

Meanwhile, the Nebraska Chamber along with its national partners – the National Association of Manufacturers and the U.S. Chamber – are pushing hard to encourage federal policymakers to address our nation’s most pressing infrastructure priorities.

Without question, transportation infrastructure is vital to Nebraska’s and

America’s future. Thankfully, Nebraska’s state lawmakers have been bold and creative in recent years in their work to address our infrastructure needs. The Nebraska Chamber is encouraging the same level of creativity at the federal level so America can truly invest in a world-class, 21st-century infrastructure.

MADE IN NEBRASKA: A LOOK AT MANUFACTURING

anufacturing is Nebraska’s second largest industry and represents a large portion of the State Chamber’s membership. That is why the State Chamber pays special attention to Nebraska’s business conditions and workforce as they impact manufacturers.

Here are some impressive facts about Nebraska’s manufacturing sector: ❚ Nebraska is home to nearly 1,700 manufacturing facilities. ❚ Manufacturing employs approximately 100,000 Nebraska workers. ❚ Manufacturing contributes almost $14 billion annually in Nebraska’s total economic output. ❚ Nebraska’s average annual employee compensation in manufacturing is around $58,600, compared to an average of $44,500 for other private, non-farm sectors. ❚ In 2015, roughly $6.5 billion of manufactured goods were exported from Nebraska.

Dirk Petersen, the former vice president/ general manager at Norfolk’s NUCOR Steel and the immediate past chair of the State Chamber, says manufacturing in Nebraska is vital to keeping our state healthy and strong.

“Numerous high paying jobs are provided by the manufacturing sector, allowing our children to have the opportunity to remain in our state as opposed to finding jobs elsewhere,” Petersen said. “A strong manufacturing base not only generates manufacturing jobs, but also provides jobs in support functions such as trucking, energy, the service industry, and other sectors of the economy. With the reduction in the amount of employees needed in agriculture, this is especially important in a

state like ours.”

Every autumn, the Nebraska Chamber works with the governor to recognize October as Manufacturing Month in Nebraska. State Chamber staff accompanies Governor Ricketts in a tour of manufacturing facilities and educational institutions across the state.

Since 2008, the State Chamber and RSM – a leading provider of assurance, tax and consulting services to the manufacturing and wholesale distribution industries – have partnered to present

the Nebraska Manufacturer of the Year Award. The award is presented annually to Nebraska manufacturers that successfully implement innovative ways of conducting business through the use of products, processes, technologies and strategies.

In 2017, Exmark Manufacturing of Beatrice and Garner Industries of Lincoln were named Nebraska’s manufacturers of the year by the Nebraska Chamber.

In previous years, the Manufacturer of the Year Award has gone to Endicott Clay Products of Fairbury, Novozymes of Blair, Lozier Corporation of Omaha, Sargent Pipe Company of Broken Bow, Hornady Manufacturing of Grand Island, Lincoln Industries of Lincoln, Smeal Fire Apparatus of Snyder, NUCOR Steel of Norfolk, Chief Industries of Grand Island, Orthman Manufacturing of Lexington, Snyder Industries of Lincoln, Majors Plastics of Omaha, Behlen Manufacturing of Columbus and Reinke Manufacturing of Deshler.

NEBRASKA’S THRIVING FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR

W

hen combined, the finance, insurance and real estate sectors comprise one of the largest pieces of Nebraska’s economy.

As of 2016, finance, insurance and real estate accounted for roughly $22.5 billion of GDP for Nebraska, or about 19 percent of Nebraska’s total economic output.

Part of the reason for the strength of the sector is historical. Household names such as Mutual of Omaha and First National of Nebraska have deep roots in the state, since 1909 and 1857, respectively. Part of it is what Nebraska has to offer. Global players such as UBS and Ford Motor Credit Co. have significant operations in the state.

The finance sector includes heavyweights such as TD Ameritrade and Berkshire Hathaway, both headquartered in Omaha; major regional banks Pinnacle Bank and First National; and technology company First Data, once part of American Express, which was founded in Nebraska in 1971 and maintains a large processing center in Omaha.

Then there are numerous community banks and financial institutions throughout the state that give the economy its backbone, and help businesses and consumers with mortgage and commercial loans, commercial real estate, small-

business resources and planning and investment services. They are also generous supporters of charities and local causes.

The insurance industry is also an economic driver for the Cornhusker State. A recent study by professors at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Creighton University that was commissioned by the Nebraska Insurance Federation (NIF) found that the insurance industry added $10.3 billion annually to the state’s economy, providing higher-than-average wages and bringing more than its share of dollars into the state.

Companies such as Mutual of Omaha, WoodmenLife, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska, Ameritas, Physicians Mutual and Assurity long have made their home in Nebraska, some since the 1800s. Out-of-

state firms such as Aflac and Pacific Life also have established significant operations in insurance industry clusters in Nebraska.

According to the NIF study, the insurance industry’s per-capita economic impact in Nebraska is the third highest in the United States.

The success of the insurance sector is an important factor in keeping skilled young workers in Nebraska and attracting a talented workforce from outside – a “brain gain,” according to the NIF study.

Why Nebraska? The state’s solid business climate and reasonable regulatory environment are the keys to its success. Also important is Nebraska’s real estate market, which provides relatively low housing and property costs for employees and businesses. The Nebraska Advantage incentive program – along with the state’s top-notch infrastructure, public power and advanced telecommunications network – all are reasons for businesses to locate in the state.

Finance, insurance and real estate also are major sources of employment in the state. Recent data show that the finance and insurance sectors employed 53,800 workers, according to U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates, while real estate employed 9,170.

NEBRASKA’S PRODUCTION AGRICULTURE & AGRIBUSINESS

N

ebraska hosts a unique mix of industries – all of which contribute greatly to the local and statewide economy. Twelve industries have a notable presence in the state. According to the Department of Economic Development, Nebraska’s major industry clusters include biosolutions, transportation logistics, software and technology, finance and insurance, R&D and engineering, tourism, health care, renewable energy and manufacturing.

But Nebraska’s diverse market is made possible in large part by one particular industry – agriculture and agribusiness.

The Nebraska Department of Agriculture notes that farm marketings contribute approximately $23 billion to the state economy. A remarkable 92 percent (45.3 million acres) of Nebraska’s total land area is used for farming or livestock production.

The state supports around 49,000 farms and ranches, with the average operation being around 920 acres.

Leading commodities produced in Nebraska include corn, cattle, soybeans,

hogs, wheat, dairy products, eggs, hay, dry beans and sugar beets. Nebraska is the nation’s leader in beef and veal exports, commercial red meat production, commercial cattle processing, Great Northern beans production, all cattle on feed and popcorn production.

Livestock and poultry account for roughly 50 percent of the total agricultural cash receipts in Nebraska. It is said that one in every five steaks and hamburgers consumed in the U.S. is produced in Nebraska, which produces more beef per square mile than any other state.

Corn is also a major player in the Nebraska economy. More than 1.5 billion

bushels of corn are produced each year here. Of that, nearly a third of the state’s corn is used for ethanol production. In 2015, Nebraska ranked second in the nation in ethanol production capacity with 25 operating ethanol facilities.

Agriculture has a hand in supporting various other state industries, as well.

Nebraska’s $6.4 billion in agricultural exports in 2015 stimulated an estimated $7.8 billion in additional economic activity.

Meanwhile, seven of Nebraska’s ag cooperatives are currently ranked among the very largest in the country, according to data from the National Cooperative Bank.
