The Nebraska Legislature approved multiple bills on final reading during Friday’s floor session, sending them on with emergency clauses.
On the roll call the body passed LB720, a body-art licensure measure, with the clerk recording 46 ayes, no nays and three senators excused. The presiding officer announced that LB720 "passes with the emergency clause."
Senators then considered LB771 (transportation-related amendments) and approved it with a recorded vote of 44 ayes and 2 nays; three senators were excused. The presiding officer declared that LB771 passes with the emergency clause.
Finally, LB956 — a bill addressing postsecondary education coordination, reporting and related provisions — passed with 46 ayes, no nays and three excused votes; the presiding officer declared the bill passed with the emergency clause.
The clerk recorded the bills as presented to the governor the following morning. The presiding officer and clerk handled standard procedural matters and advanced the day’s agenda to later floor items.
