Nebraska: Pro-Gun Bills Awaiting Committee Votes

Last week, multiple pro-gun bills were heard in committee in the Unicameral and are awaiting advancement to the floor. Your legislators need to hear from you to ensure these bills get the momentum they deserve! Please contact members of the committees by using the TAKE ACTION button below and encourage them to SUPPORT these bills!

Bills in the Judiciary Committee:

Legislative Bill 155 extends castle doctrine to apply to motor vehicles.

Legislative Bill 539 changes provisions relating to handgun purchase requirements by repealing Nebraska's firearm permit-to-purchase. Expediency is more important than ever when it comes to the right of self-defense. 

Bills in the Banking, Commerce, and Insurance Committee:

Legislative Bill 686 prohibits government entities and officials from keeping certain lists relating to the ownership of firearms and prohibit using merchant category codes to distinguish firearm retailers. This is an important protection for gun owners, protecting private purchasing data from abuse by third parties. For more information, click here.

Legislative Bill 687 adopts the Firearm Industry Nondiscrimination Act, prohibiting public contracts with individuals or companies that are boycotting certain industries, including those that engage in or support the manufacture, distribution, sale, or use of firearms. This bill would require those who contract with the state to disclose if their policies discriminate against the firearms industry.

Please stay tuned to the NRA-ILA website and your inbox for updates as this legislative session progresses.
