The first session of the 108th Legislature is going to start in less than a month. Nebraska’s constitution says the legislature “must” do two things. We must meet the first Wednesday after the first Monday in January, and we also must pass a two-year budget in the first session. This year, the people of Nebraska ratified a constitutional amendment on the ballot, so the Legislature has a third compulsory requirement we must pass this session; a law that implements voter ID. We cannot have another election in Nebraska until this law is signed by the Governor.
