Timeline

2019

Fortenberry introduced the Renewable Fuels for America’s Future Act of 2010. The act was described by the Lincoln Journal Star editorial board as "a smart and thoughtful way to reduce subsidies for the production of ethanol." The act would result in taxpayer savings of $5.67 billion, according to economists Ernie Goss of Creighton University and Bruce Babcock of Iowa State University.

2018

Campaigning for an eighth term in October 2018, it was reported that Fortenberry's chief of staff Dr. William “Reyn” Archer III threatened an associate professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Ari Kohen, who had 'liked' a Facebook post depicting a photo of a Fortenberry campaign sign vandalised by the addition of googly eyes and the modification of the candidate's name to "Fartenberry." Archer raised Kohen's liking of the photo with Kohen's supervisor as well as the dean and chancellor of the university. In reaction, Kohen raised a complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics, and noted the 'chilling effect' of Archer seeking to violate his First Amendment rights.
