Problems and hopes for Mexico's economy in 1970 outlook
Mexico faces a slowed economy with 2.9 percent first quarter industrial drop and 25 percent inflation. Unemployment reaches 1.5 million with 7 million underemployed, yet March shows modest recovery. Analysts foresee 2-3 percent growth by year end, offset by high credit costs and wage pressures. Public and private investment totaling about 14 billion dollars is seen as insufficient to match population growth.

Nebraska lawmakers override veto on lobbyist receipts bill
The Nebraska Legislature voted 34 to 12 to override Gov. Exon’s veto of LB4 changing lobbying rules. The bill sets a $25 receipt requirement for lobbyists and raises the two year lobbyist registration fee from $5 to $25, debated as weakening sunshine laws. Critics argued the $25 threshold is too high and burdensome, while supporters claimed it boosts accountability.

Nebraska lawmakers approve food tax refund bill to governor
The legislature passed and sent to the governor a measure correcting LR430 to ensure Nebraskans receive a $20 food tax refund this year. The bill clarifies refunds based on sales taxes paid on food and references a January effective date. A related veto note cited by Exon targets sunshine commission reform. In York, a district judge ordered another hearing to decide if Ricky A. Johnson should be tried as a juvenile or adult for a first degree murder tied to an April York police officer's death. June 10 is set for the transfer hearing if needed, with a potential June 20 trial if Johnson remains in the case. Bond was denied.
