Exon seeks help for farmers in pesticide plan clash
Gov. J James Exon urged Nebraska's two senators and three representatives to press federal authorities for more time and relief as Nebraska farmers face a June 20 plan rejection for pesticide applicator certification. He warned of a "terrible box" between federal mandates and legislative inaction, and urged a one year delay while seeking modifications or a legislative pass. A Sept 27 hearing in Lincoln will address the issue, with possible court action if needed.
