  • Nebraska Legislative Bill 610 (2015)
    NEBRASKA LEGISLATIVE BILL 610 (2015) Title of Bill: Legislative Bill 610 Objective: Gradual state gas tax increase to 6 cents-per-gallon, to be divided between the Nebraska Department of Roads and cities and counties for the purpose of road and bridge maintenance and construction. Status of Legislation: Passed May 14, 2015 by an override of the Governor’s veto of the original bill. Nebraska LB 610 Veto Override May 14, 2015 FOR 30 AGAINST 16 Background State Gas Tax Rate Since 1995, Nebraska’s state gas tax was calculated by combining three components: a 10.3 cents-per- gallon flat excise tax; a 5 percent tax on the average wholesale price of fuel (charged to producers, suppliers, distributors, wholesalers, importers and retailers of motor fuels); and a variable rate tax which is increased as needed by the state legislature to ensure adequate funding for transportation projects. Distribution The state gas tax was divided between the Nebraska Department of Roads and cities/counties within the state: Of the flat excise tax, 7.5 cents-per-gallon was distributed to the Department of Roads, and 2.8 cents-per-gallon to cities and counties for local roads and bridges; and 66 percent of the tax on the average wholesale price of fuel goes to the Department of Roads, and 17 percent goes to each city and county. Other sources of transportation funding, such as revenue generated by motor vehicle registration fees and sales tax on vehicle purchases, are split so that the Department of Roads receives 53 1/3 percent and cities and counties receive 23 1/3 percent.

Box 80410 • Lincoln, NE 68501 (402) 438-4802 • [email protected] • www.nebraskarighttolife.org LEGISLATURE SHELVES PRO-LIFE BILLS FOR FOURTH YEAR IN A ROW The Nebraska Legislature’s Judiciary Committee heard three pro-life bills on March 18th that are still be- ing held in Committee. Because none of the bills were selected as a “Priority Bill” by any Senator, there was little chance of making the case to the Committee for them to move to the floor this year. The Unicameral’s system in recent years dictates that controversial legislation (that which has opposition and/or amendments) must have a “priority” designation either by a Senator, Committee or the Speaker, to come forward for floor debate in that Session. Because we are in the first year of a two-year cycle, the pro-life bills will carry over to the 2016 Session, unless the Judiciary Committee kills them. Two of the bills are perceived to be a priority by Nebraska Right to Life. They are LB 187, which we worked with Sen. Bill Kintner, LD 2, to bring to fruition; and LB 114, introduced by Sen. Beau McCoy, LD 39. Pro-lifers from LD 33 visit with Judiciary Committee Chairman The third bill, LB 358 by Sen.
