Last update: 4 hours ago

Nebraska Housing: Lincoln County’s typical home value rose 6.2% to $228,181 in August 2026, still below the state’s $280,673 typical value. Childcare Policy: Nebraskans say delays in reauthorizing the childcare subsidy nearly forced families to pay out of pocket, highlighting how state processing can disrupt working parents. Cybercrime & Finance: The FBI’s first cyber fugitive on the Ten Most Wanted list was returned to the U.S. and appeared in a Nebraska courtroom, tied to alleged malware-driven ATM theft. Elections & Money: A Nebraska senator (Pete Ricketts) is in the spotlight as Trump campaigns in the state ahead of midterms, while the FEC is questioning thousands of donations tied to prolific online donors. National Economy & Costs: G7 nations agreed to release 100 million barrels of oil and fuel over four months, with diesel releases aimed at easing high fuel prices that hit farmers. Agribusiness: Black beans and pintos are flagged as in short supply for 2026-27 as competition and stock drawdowns squeeze availability. Business & Growth: Supra Technology won a DoD-backed contract to improve scandium extraction, targeting a more secure U.S. supply of the critical mineral.
