Speaker Hadley Names Priority Bills
The Nebraska Legislature is now in the second half of its 2016 legislative session. As of February 19, all senators and committees had named their priority legislation, as well as Speaker of the Legislature Galen Hadley. Priority bills are generally considered before others in the order of floor debate, giving them a better chance of passage during the session.
