I'm Preston Love, and I'm running for U.S. Senate to put people over politics.
For too long, our leaders have failed to put everyday Nebraskans first. Their one-party rule has widened the partisan, geographic, and racial gaps between us instead of working to bridge
I just left the stage of the rally with Governor Walz in Omaha. We had an amazing crowd and great energy!
I told supporters that I am running for US Senate to put people over politics, and Vice President Harris and Governor Walz were the best people to do that.
Today I formally challenged Pete Ricketts to agree to a public debate. Nebraska Public Media, in partnership with the Nebraska Examiner, Lincoln Journal Star, the Omaha World Herald, and the KRVN radio network, have organized and requested a debate before a televised audience.
Voters across Nebraska have come to know Pete Ricketts for who he really is: A politician who has used his power for his own benefit while hardworking Nebraskans have suffered.
I had a great time meeting
@SecondGentleman
Doug Emhoff in Omaha today! During his visit, the Second Gentleman discussed the importance of re-electing
@JoeBiden
and ending one-party rule in Nebraska!
Unlike Pete Ricketts, I'm committed to defending reproductive rights and advocating for common sense gun safety. It's time for policies that protect and progress, not restrict.
Reproductive rights are non-negotiable. As your Senator, I will fiercely defend a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body.
Health care decisions should be between a woman and her doctor, not dictated by politicians. Period.
I am honored to cast my vote for Vice President Kamala Harris to become our next Democratic nominee for President. It’s a historic moment for me, as the first Black party nominee for Senate in NE, to be able to support our first Black woman for President of the United States.
In Nebraska, we value fairness, respect, and democracy. Yet, we see far-right extremists pushing agendas that divide us and undermine these core principles. It's time to challenge the one-sided narrative and bring balance back to our great state.
Does Pete Ricketts think he is above the democratic process? I believe it is important for all candidates, elected officials, and even party-appointed officials like Ricketts to engage in public debate.
In Nebraska, we value our safety. Yet, Pete Ricketts has consistently opposed common-sense gun safety measures that protect our families and children.
It's time for leaders who prioritize the well-being of our communities over political agendas.
Our freedoms are under threat by leaders like Pete Ricketts. Leaders who only push the extreme MAGA agenda to divide us rather than unite us. This is not the Nebraska way.
The difference is clear:
✅ I believe in protecting reproductive rights.
❌ Sen. Pete Ricketts supports a total ban.
You can count on me to protect your freedoms.
Nebraska's Senate seat shouldn't be a product of political favors. As your Senator, I promise to be a voice for all Nebraskans, not just the privileged few. Let's stand together for fair representation.
While Sen. Pete Ricketts ignores the escalating crisis of gun violence in our communities, our families and neighborhoods are left to bear the consequences.
Nebraska deserves a senator who listens, cares, and takes decisive action to keep our communities safe.
Today we celebrate Juneteenth, a day of emancipation and the triumph of freedom over oppression.
Let us honor the courage of those who fought for liberty and renew our commitment to justice and equality for all. Together, we can make the dream of true freedom a reality.
I am proud to have Senator
@TonyVargas
on our team! His relentless advocacy for healthcare and education aligns with our vision for a better Nebraska.
Watch his endorsement and see why we’re stronger together. 👇🏾
Every woman deserves the right to make her own healthcare decisions.
In the Senate, I will be an unwavering advocate for women's health & freedom, ensuring it's affordable and accessible to all.
Guess what Nebraska — I’m going on tour!
This Monday, February 26th, my campaign will kick off the Love Tour. I am eager to travel around the state and hear directly from Nebraskans about the issues that matter most to them.
Extremists like Sen. Pete Ricketts want to dictate personal decisions that should remain between a woman & her doctor. Not on my watch. I'm here to protect your freedoms, but I need your support to bring this fight to the US Senate.
Earlier this year, my opponent blocked a bi-partisan border deal just because Trump told him to. 🙄
Pete Ricketts has spent his career putting politics over the well-being of everyday Nebraskans. It’s time we say, “enough is enough” and move on from little Pete.
In Nebraska, our small farmers are the backbone of our community. But they're under threat — being pushed out by large corporate farms. It's more than land. It's about preserving our way of life, jobs, and our communities.
I stand with our farmers!
As your Senator, I will support a woman’s right to choose, protect IVF access, and stop MAGA republican attempts to deny access to contraception.
Unfortunately, my opponent can’t say the same.
Join my campaign to put people over politics:
It's time to get real about reproductive rights. I'm running for the US Senate to fiercely defend our freedom to choose, against those who try to dictate and restrict. This fight is non-negotiable.
There's no two ways about it – our voting rights are hanging by a thread. If the GOP takes control of the Senate in November, we could be waving goodbye to our democracy as we know it.
It's time we stand firm to protect our vote.
I commend President Joe Biden for his many years of public service, and thank him for his leadership during a very challenging time for our country. I respect his decision to end his campaign and look forward to strongly supporting Kamala Harris as the Dem. nominee for President.
As a proud Nebraskan, civil rights advocate, and educator, I've dedicated my life to serving our community. Now, I'm stepping up to represent Nebraska in the US Senate. But I can't do this alone – your support is vital.
I've written books, lead community change, and I teach at UNO, all driven by my belief in making a real difference. Now, I'm running for U.S. Senate to bring our voices to the forefront. I know with your help we can do this, Nebraska!
I'm running for the US Senate to represent all Nebraskans, no matter where you're from or what party you support. Join our movement to shake up Washington and bring real change.
I am honored to provide voters a real choice in this election – and I’m proud to stand up for reproductive rights, support organized labor, keep public funding for public schools, and support common-sense gun and climate change policies.
Nebraska deserves leadership that works for everyone, not just the privileged few. With every federal and state elected official from one party, our diverse needs aren't being met – neither in urban areas nor in rural communities. I'm running to put people over privilege.
Everyone deserves access to quality healthcare, regardless of income. That’s why I support strengthening and expanding Medicaid in Nebraska. Let's close the gap and ensure healthcare for all.
Affordable healthcare is not a privilege, it's a right. In the Senate, I will work tirelessly to ensure that every Nebraskan has access to the care they need.
After reviewing the results of the case against Mr. Trump, there wasn’t a doubt in my mind about the result. The former President, now a convicted felon, has brought our democracy and justice system to the brink. That’s nothing to celebrate.

Nebraska's union workers are the backbone of our great state! Unions ensure that hardworking Nebraskans are paid what they deserve and have safe working conditions. Union workers in Nebraska will always have my support!
Healthcare should be a right, not a privilege. I advocate for universal healthcare to ensure every Nebraskan has access to the care they need. Let's make it happen.
I just received word that the National Sierra Club PAC has endorsed my campaign.
Protecting the environment and our natural resources is critical, especially in Nebraska where agriculture is a key driver of our local economy.

Yesterday, I attended the Nebraska Stonewall Democrats' inaugural Lavender Gala to recruit and support LGBTQIA candidates in our state.
Attending this critical event rooted in challenging discrimination and making our society more inclusive was a joy.
Nebraska needs leaders willing to protect our planet and take bold action against climate threats.
I'm ready to be that leader - for our environment, for our children, and for Nebraska.
Politicians shouldn't dictate women's healthcare. Period.
The GOP's attack on IVF is an assault on all our rights. As your next Senator, I won't stand by as they try to control your health and your future. We're fighting back. Join us!
The Love Tour is off to a great start! I had a great time speaking with Grand Island & Hastings voters today, about the work we ALL need to do to bridge the gaps between our communities. I can’t wait to hear directly from more of you this week.
Nebraska's farmers work tirelessly every single day. Yet, rural healthcare remains inaccessible for many. I am committed to fight for policies that bridge healthcare disparities in rural Nebraska & ensure our farmers & their families have the access they need.
I promise never to back down in the fight to protect our reproductive rights, no matter how hell-bent the far-right MAGA extremists are on taking away your freedoms.
Every voice in Nebraska deserves to be heard.
I am committed to protecting and expanding voting rights, and ensuring fair and accessible elections. We must fight against voter suppression and guarantee that every voter can cast their ballot without barriers.
Happy Valentine’s Day! With a last name like Love, it's natural for me to say I'd LOVE to be your next senator. Together, we can build a Nebraska that works for all of us!
Instead of telling voters the truth, my opponent used the Trump conviction as an opportunity to score political points.
Under Pete Ricketts’ leadership, everyday Nebraskans have suffered due to his unwillingness to hold truth to power and put people over politics.
News flash: Climate change is no hoax, especially for our farmers. I'm committed to supporting climate-resilient agriculture to help Nebraska farmers adapt to and mitigate the impacts of extreme weather.
I'm Preston Love Jr., and I am running for the US Senate in Nebraska.
From my days as a Husker athlete to a civil rights advocate, my journey has been about breaking barriers and amplifying the voices of the underrepresented.
If there's one thing to know about me, it's that I stand for justice, equality, and opportunity for all Nebraskans. My campaign is about uplifting every voice.
Excited to share
@SenMcKinneyLD11
's endorsement! His dedication to Nebraska's growth and underserved communities inspires our campaign.

As a proud Nebraskan, from a Husker athlete to a civil rights advocate, my journey has been anything but conventional.
It's this path that has fueled my commitment to serve and break barriers. Now, I am to ready disrupt the status quo in Washington. Will you join me?
Nebraska's heart lies in its farms and fields. As your next Senator, I will do everything in my power to protect our small farmers and ensure they thrive to sustain Nebraska for generations to come.
This campaign is about representing all of Nebraska – a state full of hardworking people who deserve a government that works for them, not against them. We're up against far-right extremists who've divided us for too long. It's time to heal our nation & move past this.
On this 4th of July, let's remember that democracy is not just a legacy we inherit, but a responsibility we uphold. Here's to the ongoing pursuit of liberty, equality, and justice for all. 🇺🇸
This Earth Month, let's remember what's at stake: climate change. Nebraska needs leaders willing to take bold action against climate threats. I'm ready to be that leader—for our environment, for our children, and for Nebraska.
Every Nebraskan deserves quality healthcare, no matter where they live. It's time to invest in rural health services to ensure our communities thrive. Let's bring change together.
This campaign is all about fighting for what’s right, standing up for our freedoms, & making sure everyone gets a fair shot in Nebraska.
Unlike my self-serving opponent, Sen. Pete Ricketts, I am ready to fight for ALL—no matter their party affiliation or zip code.
We’ve spoken to Democrats, Republicans, and Independents who are ready to challenge the status quo in Nebraska because one-party rule is not working for our state. I’m running to win and bridge the gaps that drive us — and winning this race starts right here in North Omaha!
My campaign is about more than making history. It's about bringing a new, inclusive voice to the table. It's about representing all of Nebraska – a state full of hardworking people who deserve a government that works for them, not against them.
From concerns about farming to making sure our seniors get the care they need, voters in Kearney let me know what issues were at the forefront of their communities. Nebraskans deserve to have alternatives on the ballot, to bring the change in leadership that our state needs.
I'm honored to receive the endorsement of
@senatormachaela
. Her fierce advocacy and dedication to our state inspire our campaign.
Watch her share why we're in this together. 👇🏾
I represent more than a political stance. I embody the fighting spirit of Nebraska, fighting for every resident regardless of party affiliation or zip code. Our state deserves a leader dedicated to unity, progress, and the well-being of all its people.
Hey Nebraskans! We want to give a big shoutout our super volunteer, Ricki Barber. Thanks to people like him, we’re gaining momentum and will win this election. Thank you, Ricki, for representing
#TeamLove
today at the Black Expo in Lincoln!
I believe every American deserves access to quality healthcare without the fear of financial ruin. Universal healthcare can be our reality—it's time we elect leaders who will fight to make it happen.
Our health, our lives, and our future depend on it.
Super Bowl Sunday takes me back to my football days. Just like on the field, in politics teamwork and strategy are key. Today, let's celebrate sportsmanship and unity.
Let's be clear: Unions built the middle class in America. It's time we honor that legacy with action! I stand with every worker fighting for fair wages, safe working conditions, & the respect they deserve.
When we uplift unions, we uplift Nebraska!
Every mother deserves access to top-notch maternal healthcare. It's crucial, especially for Black mothers who face elevated health risks. It's time to stand up for healthcare that protects all mothers and their future.
We're at a crossroads with challenges that demand bold, compassionate leadership in Nebraska. Whether it's fighting for affordable healthcare, protecting our farms, or ensuring our children inherit a thriving, sustainable state, I'm committed to being that leader.
What a journey!

wrapped on Friday, and the energy across Nebraska is electric. Everywhere we went, the call for change was clear. Thank you for the warm welcomes and powerful conversations!
👋🏾 I'm Preston Love Jr., a civil rights advocate running for the U.S. Senate in Nebraska to represent the hardworking people & families of our state. We're approaching our end-of-month deadline, and I need your support.
It’s true that President Biden did not have a good night at the recent debate. However, I believe it would be an error in judgment to think it was anything more than one bad performance.
I'm running for the U.S. Senate to be a leader who truly gets Nebraska's struggles and dreams. My journey—from a Husker athlete to a civil rights advocate—shows my commitment to fighting for the underrepresented.
I'm here to fight for a Nebraska that works for everyone.
The majority of Nebraskans oppose more restrictive bans on abortion. I stand with women across our State who are tired of the government coming in between them and their doctor.

Nebraska families are struggling under the weight of skyrocketing prescription drug prices. It's personal to me, and it's time for action. As your next Senator, I'll fight to make medications affordable for all.

Nebraska's heart beats in its fields & farms. In the Senate, I will champion initiatives that reinforce our farmers & rural communities. From securing stable funding for risk management to supporting family farms, my focus will be on sustainable agriculture & rural prosperity.

Freedom is the cornerstone of our nation, and yet, our reproductive rights & access to IVF are under siege by MAGA Republicans. These are not just issues of health but of our fundamental rights to choose and to plan our families. We must fight back.
Happy Birthday, Nebraska! 157 years later and still going strong as the best state in the Union. I look forward to celebrating with Nebraskans today for the final day of

Hey Nebraska: The first day of early, in-person voting is April 15th. I encourage everyone to vote early and make a plan today. You can find your county clerk’s or election commissioner’s office below.
Your vote is your power. Let's use it!
Yesterday’s journey with

took me to Scottsbluff, where the spirit of change was palpable. Meeting Nebraskans ready to embrace a new direction was truly inspiring. Also, the views on the road were just as great as the people!
This Black History Month, let's honor our fight for voting rights. Our democracy is strongest when everyone's voice is heard. I'll fight to protect this right for every Nebraskan.
This Black History Month, I reflect on the profound impact of leaders like
@RevJJackson
