The decision by Sen. Bob Kerrey to withdraw from giving a commencement address at Creighton University underscores the peril of the one-party political domination of our state by the Republican Party.<\/p>\n

In Trump-like fashion, the Nebraska GOP last week acted like bullies, calling on Creighton University to rescind its invitation to Sen. Kerrey, a war hero and Medal of Honor recipient, to give the May 18 commencement address at the school because of his pro-choice stance on abortion.<\/p>\n

On Monday,\u00a0Kerrey announced<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>that he had decided against speaking at Creighton, saying he did not want to become a distraction if Republicans protested at the event.<\/p>\n

Sen. Kerrey rightfully said said the students\u2019 commencement \u201cshould be a moment of celebration\u201d and \u201cnot be interrupted with politics.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jane Kleeb, the Nebraska Democratic Chair said, \u201cThe Nebraska GOP failed to understand that graduation day should be about the students, their families and the school — not political bullying and intimidation. Fortunately, Sen. Kerrey did understand. Now Creighton is left searching for a new speaker when all of this could have been avoided by the Republican Party not modeling Trump\u2019s erratic and bullying behavior.”<\/p>\n

Please share the\u00a0NDP\u2019s Tweet<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>v\u00e0 post on Facebook<\/a><\/strong> to show support for Sen. Kerrey.<\/p>\n
