LINCOLN- State Sen. Megan Hunt and the Nebraska Legal Action Fund have demanded a retraction from an organization that tweeted about the Omaha senator and her 12-year-old son, who is transgender. The conservative political action committee Nebraska Freedom Coalition referred to Hunt as a "groomer" in a tweet and posted pictures of the senator’s son prior to his transition.

The Nebraska Legal Action Fund called the tweet defamatory and issued a cease-and-desist letter demanding a retraction. The coalitions Executive Director, Patrick Peterson, did not see the letter nor could recall if he tweeted the tweet. The coalition later issued a response that seemingly mocked the letter and repeated its allegations against Hunt.

Former State Sen. Adam Morfeld, who heads the Nebraska Legal Action Fund, said attacks against Hunt and others by the Freedom Coalition have been ongoing for some time, and that the group was happy to provide her with assistance. Morfeld responded to the Freedom Coalitions tweet by saying "See you in court!".
