"While it will take time for researchers to fully confirm the U.S. and Nebraska are in a recession, everyone knows there is a sudden and harsh economic disruption occurring due to COVID-19," said Jim Vokal, Chief Executive Officer of the Platte Institute. 

"Senator Stinner will join us to discuss how the Legislature's policy priorities will be impacted by the COVID-19 recession and how senators are budgeting for the costs of the emergency now, and once the Unicameral eventually returns to session," said Vokal.
