About

Elected: Appointed 2023, elected 2024 (first full term)

  • Background: Former Nebraska Governor; TD Ameritrade founding family
  • Committees: Foreign Relations, Commerce, Environment, Small Business
  • State: Small Nebraska Ukrainian community; agricultural and LNG stake creates indirect interests

Bio Pete Ricketts voted for earlier Ukraine aid as a governor-aligned conservative, but he has been cautious about additional spending.

Ukraine Record

  • Voted YES on earlier Ukraine aid
  • Not currently signed onto UAPortal bills

Advocacy Insight

  • Ask them to: Sign onto the Supporting Ukraine Act (S. 2592) and the REPO Act (S. 2918), which uses frozen Russian assets to rebuild Ukraine.
  • Why it works with them: Nebraska grain and beef markets are hurt by Russia. Hard-power strategic framing also works.
  • Your connection: Mention Nebraska farmers and ranchers hurt by Russian interference in global markets.
  • Avoid: Broad humanitarian framing. Lead with Nebraska agriculture.

Without this bill, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians who fled the war and built lives in the U.S. face deportation back to an active war zone. This is the single most urgent protection for Ukrainians in America.

    Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], a constituent from [YOUR CITY/ZIP].
    
    I'm calling to urge Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] to cosponsor H.R. 3104, the Ukrainian Adjustment Act of 2025.
    
    Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians fled Russia's invasion and are now living in the U.S. on temporary status. They cannot safely return to an active war zone. H.R. 3104 gives them a path to permanent residency. It's bipartisan, it's targeted, and it's the right thing to do.
    
    Will Representative [REPRESENTATIVE'S NAME] cosponsor H.R. 3104?
    
    Thank you.
