LB20, passed in April, was not new and not radical. It represented 8 years of advocacy and resilience to change the hearts and minds of legislators across Nebraska. We know Nebraskans believe in second chances. We stand with those affected and will keep advocating and working to make change.
“The Attorney General's opinion and the Secretary of State's announcement - made public less than 48 hours before a law to remedy this is to take effect -
unnecessarily introduces more uncertainty, delay and complication.”

LINCOLN, Neb. – Thousands of Nebraskans who are incarcerated in Nebraska’s county jails will have access to voting rights information this spring thanks to a partnership between the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Nebraska, Civic Nebraska and RISE. Educational pamphlets produced by the organizations are arriving at county jails this week.
