The League actively engages with the Nebraska Legislature. Before each legislative session, members of the state board of directors review bills and identify priority legislation based on our issues program. We testify before committees; write op-eds and letters to the editors of newspapers; contact government officials through e-mails, phone calls and letters; hold an annual Legislative Day; and, in general, encourage our members to take action.
The 1st Session of the 109th Nebraska Legislature adjourned sine die on June 3, 2025. The 2nd Session will begin on January 7, 2026.
Review our online summary of 2025 Senator actions including committee assignments, legislation introduced and votes on notable bills.
Testimony for second session bills will be added after hearings that begin in January 2026.
