LB 741 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Change the membership of the Racial Profiling Advisory Committee and the Nebraska Children's Commission

This bill changes membership requirements for two existing state committees. For the Racial Profiling Advisory Committee, it adds specific representatives from police associations (Fraternal Order of Police, Sheriffs Association), civil rights groups (ACLU, NAACP), labor (AFL-CIO), and legal organizations (Nebraska State Bar Association), while keeping existing roles for commission directors. For the Nebraska Children's Commission, it adds a representative from a federally recognized Nebraska Indian tribe (selected from a list by the Commission on Indian Affairs) and an African American Affairs representative (selected from a list by that commission). These changes adjust who serves on the committees but do not create new policies or directly affect the public. The bill amends existing statutes governing both committees' composition.
