GRAND ISLAND- Grand Island State Senator Ray Aguilar officially filed Friday, Jan. 26 with Secretary of State Bob Evnen to seek re-election to represent the people of District 35 in the Nebraska Legislature. Aguilar stated he’s running for re-election to build on his positive record of getting things done for the hard-working people of Grand Island.

“I voted for the creation of the Property Tax Relief Fund to help lower the property tax burden on seniors, veterans, small businesses and working families and for tax reform bills that resulted in $1.7 billion in property tax relief, a 100% state income tax exemption for military retirement benefits, and a 50% state income tax exemption for social security benefits by 2025.”

Working with Veteran’s organizations, community leaders and the Governor, Aguilar introduced LB80 which secures 8 million dollars to build to the Nebraska Veterans Cemetery at Grand Island. Aguilar said among other things, he intends to keep advocating for property tax relief, fighting for quality education for students in Nebraska, and giving veterans and taxpayers in his district a strong voice from their Senator.
