Nebraska Legislature Bills 2017/2018! - 01/08/17 11:33 PM
Last week Nebraska's Unicam started a 90 day session. It will end roughly in June. There are several hot topic issues, mainly the budget. But even with the budget fight to take up most of the time, there will always be a couple of bills that interest myself, especially since I am huge gun nut.
Please join the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association (NFOA) if you have not done so already. We are discussing these bills in our Member's Only section of our web forum. We are nearly 9,000 Nebraskans strong and are 100% free and 100% volunteers.
As of right now, these are the bills that are of interest. If you have a question, please ask I will try my best to talk about it. I am no lawyer.
LB81 - Change the application fee for handgun certificates, Sen Blood
Basically raises the Firearm Purchase Certificate from $5 to $25.

LB39 - Prohibit the sale and trade of ivory, Sen Harr
Prevents the sale of ivory on everything including firearms and knives, but you have to read the bill for all the details.

LB68 - Prohibit certain regulation of firearms, ammunition, and firearm accessories by counties, cities, and villages as prescribed, Sen Hilgers
This is the bill we need passed! This is this year's State Preemption law! No more registering your firearms in Omaha, no more over reaching from cities and towns to prevent your Right to Bear Arms! This is a HUGE NFOA priority! The NRA will also help try to get this passed. This bill has a few changes from last year's Preemption bill.

That is all I saw right now, I will update this thread as time goes on.
