Bruce Bostelman (born July 20, 1962) is an American politician who has served in the Nebraska Legislature from the 23rd district since 2017.[1][2]

In 2022, during floor debate about policy for school students with behavioral health issues, Bostelman incorrectly claimed that some students dress up as furries in school, communicating with teachers by meowing and barking like animals, and that litter boxes are provided for them. School officials corrected him, stressing that nothing like that had ever happened.[3]
