Governor Pillen pushes tax relief, spending cuts, and legislative reform for 2026 amid budget concerns.
Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen has outlined priorities for the 2026 legislative session, focusing on property tax relief by eliminating certain exemptions, fiscal responsibility, and cutting existing programs instead of creating new ones amid a looming budget deficit.
He proposed lowering the filibuster override threshold from 33 to 30 votes to improve legislative efficiency.
Senators Dan Quick and Loren Lippincott highlighted challenges with Medicaid reimbursement rates, rising healthcare costs, cuts to therapy services, and concerns over omnibus bills that hinder thorough debate.
The session begins January 7 and ends April 17.
