Nebraska constitutional amendments on governor ties and higher ed board
Proposed Amendments No 13 and 14 outline changes to the Nebraska constitution. No 13 would pair the governor and lieutenant governor as a ticket, make the lieutenant governor full time, and remove presiding duties over the legislature. No 14 would create a nine member Board of Trustees for Higher Education governing the university system and state colleges, replacing current boards in parts, with continued local control for some junior colleges. The text also references annual legislative sessions under Amendment No 15, and other related provisions.
