Chris Backemeyer answered a call to serve after 9/11, building a distinguished career in national security at the U.S. State Department and the White House National Security Council. Working under both Democratic and Republican administrations, he tackled counterterrorism, economic challenges, and complex issues in the Middle East, including serving as a lead negotiator on the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal. Now, he's running for Congress to continue that service — fighting for Nebraska families and expanding opportunity for all.
