LB 300 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Change provisions relating to the Superintendent Pay Transparency Act and provide a limit for superintendent and educational service unit administrator compensation

LB 300 amends Nebraska school district laws to add a compensation limit for superintendents and educational service unit administrators, requiring their pay to comply with the existing Superintendent Pay Transparency Act. The bill defines "compensation" as salary plus benefits (like retirement contributions and insurance) and prohibits school districts from entering contracts that exceed this new limit. It directly affects all Nebraska school districts and educational service units when hiring or setting pay for these leadership roles. The key mechanism is amending multiple statutes (79-566, 79-567, 79-594, 79-1219, and 79-2401) to include this limit and clarify pay transparency requirements.
