Part 2

Part two of my interview with KFOR's Dale Johnson.

Interview with Dale Johnson

A couple of weeks ago, I sat down with KFOR's Dale Johnson on Lincoln Live to talk about my term as your Nebraska State Treasurer, my service in the United States Navy and the direction of our country. I had excellent conversation with Dale, and thought I would share it with you in case you missed it.

The interview is in five parts, so I'll be posting part two tomorrow.

Best,
Shane

Dear Friends:

I'm in Colorado this weekend as a member of the Aspen-Rodel Fellows Program. Our topic is: Democracy, Community, and the Individual.

I can't properly explain how humbling it is to be part of a group that is comprised of so many young, dynamic and incredible leaders. Yesterday evening I was approached individually by four or five elected leaders from other states who wanted to congratulate me on our transparency website, NebraskaSpending.com. I think they were most impressed by how little we spent to create ours when compared to other states like Oklahoma, Missouri, and Texas.

Speaking of NebraskaSpending.com, expect a big announcement next week!

First things first...

Hello friends! My name is Shane Osborn and I welcome you to my new blog. 

For those of you who might now know, I grew up in Norfolk, Nebraska, attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln on a Naval ROTC scholarship, spent 9 years in the United States Navy as an EP-3E pilot, am married to an incredible woman named Teri and have three beautiful children, Avery, Isabella, and Addison.

In 2006 I was elected Treasurer for the great state of Nebraska and it was one of the most rewarding moments of my life. Public service is a duty I take very seriously and this blog represents my effort to not only stay better connected with my Nebraska constituents but to provide you, constant reader, with some insight about the issues I hold dear. Sometimes those issues might be state related, other times it could deal with topics on the federal level, and there will probably even be some posts about my son's little league games and some Monday-morning quarterbacking during the upcoming Husker football season.

In other words, this blog will be about everything and anything.

If you have the time, feel free to send me an email and I promise I will do my best to respond to you as quickly as possible. Thanks again for stopping by and please be sure to check back often for updates!
