Senator Paul Lambert Column
For Immediate Release: Capitol Comments
May 4, 2012, Lincoln— The Nebraska Legislature maintains memberships in several national legislative organizations. The National Council of State Legislatures (NCSL) is a good example of a bipartisan organization that serves the legislators and staff of the country's 50 states and its territories. NCSL provides research, technical assistance and opportunities for policymakers to exchange ideas on the most pressing state issues. The organization is also an effective and respected advocate for the interests for state government before Congress and federal agencies. The leadership of NCSL is composed of legislators and staff from across the country. At the beginning of every 90-day session of the Nebraska Legislature, senators and staff are appointed by the speaker to serve on committees and task forces of NCSL and other national legislative organizations.
The Council of State Governments (CSG) is another national organization that focuses on major policy issues. Members of the Nebraska Legislature also serve CSG in its leadership positions and participate in the professional development opportunities it offers. CSG was founded during the Great Depression, and for more than 75 years, CSG has provided state leaders with support and recommendations on promising approaches to creating good public policy. CSG is a strictly nonpartisan organization that brings state leaders together to share ideas and provides them with the chance to learn valuable lessons from each other.
Because of my hard work and membership on the legislature’s Health and Human Services Committee, Speaker of the Legislature Mike Flood invited me to participate this month in a seminar in Denver, Colorado. The three-day program is titled, “Identifying State Health Priorities to Ensure Healthy Families: Using Limited Dollars Wisely.” Four other senators who serve on legislative committees such as Appropriations, Business and Labor, Education, Government, Health and Human Services, Judiciary, and the Nebraska Retirement Systems will be part of Nebraska's delegation at the seminar. Nebraska senators and staff will collaborate with legislative representatives from Alaska, Colorado, Hawaii, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas and Wyoming.
The National Council of State Legislatures is co-sponsoring the seminar with the National Governors Association, the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials, the Association of Maternal and Child Health Programs, and the National Association of County and City Health Officials. The seminar is funded through a grant from the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services, so this valuable training opportunity is a no-cost event for our state.
The seminar's format includes five sessions for all participants, and four team discussion meetings, in which every state's team members will develop state action plans to meet identified goals and objectives. Senators and legislative staff will focus on promoting healthy families, raising awareness of state health goals and resources, allocating limited health dollars efficiently and effectively, facilitating constructive communication among the state's key players, and identifying the next steps to be taken in each participating state.
The National Council of State Legislatures and the Council of State Governments are two of seven national legislative organizations to which the Nebraska Legislature belongs. These organizations, like those that provide education and support for public officials at all levels of government, offer legislators opportunities to receive timely information on a broad spectrum of issues, as well as intense, leadership development training in multiple-day workshops. The seminar I will attend this month will be brief and focus only on state health priorities. I am honored that Speaker Flood invited me to participate. I assured the speaker, and I assure you too, that I will work hard to represent Nebraska well and safeguard the trust that has been placed in me.
I am always interested in hearing your comments by mail, phone or email.
