New reporting indicates that Don Bacon is not seeking another term as the Representative for Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District. This news follows repeated polling that shows voters are overwhelmingly opposed to Republicans’ Big, Ugly Bill that passed the House last month thanks to Bacon’s deciding vote.
This news comes one month after Democrats defeated a three-term Republican incumbent for Mayor of Omaha, indicating the continuing leftward trajectory of the district.
DCCC Spokesperson Madison Andrus:
“The writing has been on the wall for months. Nebraskans are tired of the false promises that Republicans are trying to sell and they want real results. Don Bacon’s decision to not seek reelection in 2026 is the latest vote of no-confidence for House Republicans and their electoral prospects. Next November, Nebraskans are going to elect a Democrat who will actually deliver for them.”
