The Treasurer’s Office has been instrumental in elevating Nebraska’s reputation across the nation. Our programs for
investing in children’s education through the College Savings Plan are among the best in the nation. Child Support
Services have the greatest customer service standards in the nation, and our Treasurer returns record amounts of unclaimed
property back to Nebraskans every year. There is much to be proud of, and yet there remain opportunities to be even better.

“It is a great honor to represent the citizens of District 29 in the Nebraska Legislature, and I am humbled by the tremendous
amount of support for this new opportunity to serve as your State Treasurer,” said Fulton.

Fulton concluded by saying, “This morning, I communicated directly with voters and supporters by launching my campaign
on Facebook and Twitter. If elected, I hope to use such media innovation to improve the efficiency of the office.”
