Elaine Stuhr (born 1936) is a Nebraska state senator from Bradshaw, Nebraska in the Nebraska Legislature and farmer.

Personal life

She was born on June 19, 1936, in Polk County, Nebraska and graduated from Thayer High School in 1954 and from University of Nebraska-Lincoln in home economics education in 1969. She was a former and current member of many agriculture organizations and winner of agriculture awards. She was also a former assistant instructor at University of Nebraska-Lincoln, teacher in Henderson, Nebraska and Hampton, Nebraska and member of Zion Lutheran Church in Hampton.

State legislature

She was elected in 1994 to represent the 24th Nebraska legislative district and reelected in 1998 and 2002. She currently sits on the Education, and Rules committees, the Education Commission of the States, vice chairman of the Natural Resources committee and chairing the Nebraska Retirement Systems committee. 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.
