All bills on Legislature.ne.gov ↗Income tax rate reduction — individual filers
Sen. Linehan · Revenue Committee
Plain English
Proposes to lower the percentage of income Nebraskans pay in state taxes, phased in over several years. Could reduce state revenue — critics argue it benefits higher earners more.
School property tax relief — homestead exemption expansion
Sen. Murman · Education Committee
Plain English
Would expand who qualifies for lower property taxes if they live in their home — focused on relieving pressure on Nebraska farmers and rural homeowners who say school funding levies are too high.
Medicaid work requirements — able-bodied adult recipients
Sen. McDonnell · Health & Human Services
Plain English
Would require some adults on Medicaid to work, volunteer, or attend school to keep their health coverage. Supporters say it encourages self-sufficiency; opponents say it would kick sick or caregiving adults off health insurance.
Concealed carry permit — permitless carry expansion
Sen. Brandt · Judiciary Committee
Plain English
Nebraska now allows most adults 21+ to carry a concealed handgun without a permit. This removes the state's training and background check requirement for concealed carry — open carry was already legal.
