LINCOLN- Lincoln's newest senator, Eliot Bostar, has found himself at the center of the property tax debate. Sen. Bostar is succeeding Sen. Kate Bolz, who has term-limited out of office.

He is the sole Democrat on the Revenue Committee and the other committee he serves on, Banking, Commerce and Insurance.
