Career

Moser previously served as Mayor of Columbus, Nebraska from 2004 to 2016. In 2010, Moser tried to run for State Senator in Nebraska's 22nd district. He won the primary and lost the general election to Paul Schumacher.[2]

He eventually ran for re-election in that same district 8 years later as his predecessor was unable to run again due to term limits. Moser easily won that election with just 64.3% of the votes against Doug Oertwich.[3] He was sworn in as Senator on January 9, 2019.[4]

On May 25, 2020 Moser was hospitalized due to COVID-19.[5]
