Unicam Kids!: a Visit to Your Nebraska Legislature
UNICAM KIDS! A Visit to Your Nebraska Legislature guided by George W. Norris, “the father of the Unicameral” Unicam Kids i! I’m George Norris. I represented Nebraska in Congress from 1913 to 1943. Many people call me Hthe father of Nebraska’s Unicameral Legislature. A unicameral is a legislature with just one group of people to make laws. Nebraska has the nation’s only unicameral, which meets here at the Capitol in Lincoln to make laws for the state. I believed this one-house system would serve Nebraskans better than a bicameral, or two-house system, found in every other state. Nebraskans voted to change to a unicameral in 1934, and the first unicameral met in 1937. Let’s go inside. I’ll show you around! Nebraska is unique for its unicameral and also its unusual Capitol building. Architect Bertram Goodhue wanted the Capitol’s design to reflect the spirit of Nebraska’s people. The words and pictures on the outside of the building show Nebraska’s place in the history of law and democracy. The Capitol took 10 years to build and was finished in 1932. The tower rises almost 400 feet and is topped by a 19-foot bronze statue of a man tossing seeds, called “The Sower.” — 1 — A Visit to Your Nebraska Legislature y experience as a lawmaker made me wish for a smoother processM to make laws. I encour- aged Nebraskans to vote for a new, smaller legislature so the process would be simpler and allow for more public input. Some Nebraskans worried about becoming the only unicameral.
