## Resource

Nebraska’s State Auditor just dropped a bombshell: nearly a billion dollars in accounting errors at Lancaster County’s Treasurer’s office—no theft, just catastrophic bookkeeping. Duplicated payments, wrong amounts sent to cities and agencies like Lincoln Airport, and unreliable financial reports are the fallout. While Treasurer Rachel Garver insists property taxes were never lost and most issues are fixed, the mess has already cost the Airport Authority $215K—and they’re scrambling to repay it. With local governments confused and Foley promising follow-up audits, taxpayers can breathe easy… for now. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
