She was elected in 1998 to represent the 26th Nebraska legislative district and reelected in 2002. She currently sits on the Appropriations and Nebraska Retirement Systems committees as well as the Committee on Committees and is the vice chairperson of the Legislative Performance Audit. Since Nebraska voters passed Initiative Measure 415 in 2001 limiting state senators to two terms after 2001, she is unable run for reelection barring a court challenge of the measure.
