LB937, a bill introduced by Senator Eliot Bostar, is being considered in Nebraska's legislature. This bill would provide income tax credits to help family caregivers cover expenses. Several people testified in its support, including Susan Campbell, a caregiver who has spent decades looking after her family members with health problems. Supporters argue that these tax credits could save the state money by keeping people at home and out of more costly nursing home or assistance facilities.
