LB 74 Nebraska · 108th Legislature First Special Session

Change requirements relating to proposals for constitutional amendments submitted by the Legislature

This bill would update Nebraska law to require a neutral summary statement explaining the effects of voting for or against any constitutional amendment proposed by the Legislature. The statement must be printed on the ballot before the title and prepared by the Legislative Council's Executive Board at least four months before a regular election or sixty days before a special election. The law specifies that these summaries must be written in clear, concise language and formatted in italics to avoid creating prejudice for or against the proposal.
