So it is written, so shall it be done!

Last week, Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman certified the results of the Nebraska Civil Rights Initiative (NeCRI) and officially enshrined the language of the initiative in the state constitution.

NeCRI executive director Doug Tietz said, “The voters overwhelmingly supported the Nebraska Civil Rights Initiative and now Nebraska’s state motto ‘equality before the law’ is officially the law of the land.”

On November 4th, Initiative 424 passed with over 58 percent of the vote.

State-by-state, ballot initiative-by-ballot initiative, Martin Luther King’s dream of equality for all, with preferences given to none, is becoming a reality.

Congratulations to the citizens of Nebraska for their fairmindedness, and a special thank you to the American Civil Rights Institute for its noble efforts to achieve REAL social justice in America: a colorblind, race-neutral society.
