AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Paid Family Leave Push: The Trump administration is expanding the paid family leave tax credit, with new Treasury guidance expected to let employers qualify by paying insurance premiums instead of wages directly—aimed at boosting take-up ahead of midterms. Omaha Lead Cleanup Questions: ProPublica/Flatwater Free Press report Omaha residents in lead-contaminated yards are getting inconsistent responses from city and federal agencies, with some promised extra testing or denied it. SNAP Error Rates: USDA data show 41 states (including Nebraska) have SNAP payment error rates above 6%, raising the risk of hundreds of millions in new state costs under federal cost-sharing rules. Nebraska Ag & Risk Management: Nebraska’s Forage Production Revenue Protection program has key deadlines (Sept. 30 for many states; Aug. 11 webinar), while the Nebraska Corn Board meets Aug. 12 in York. Food Safety: A Cyclospora outbreak tied to iceberg lettuce has expanded to 15 states, including Nebraska, with thousands of cases reported. Defense Supply Chain: Lockheed Martin is in talks to buy U.S.-sourced scandium from NioCorp’s Nebraska project, supporting a domestic critical-minerals push. Local Business/Industry: FitLife Brands (Omaha) set an Aug. 13 Q2 earnings call; Nebraska City council advanced a preliminary plat for Goodlife Ag’s planned salmon-growing facility.
