Voters in Nebraska are offered multiple constitutional amendments in the 1964 and 1970 ballots. Proposals include a commission on legislative compensation, changes to legislative terms, home-rule charter petition thresholds, and major judicial reforms altering court structure and oversight.
The text outlines a constitutional amendment allowing the Legislature to classify personal property and exempt some or all classes from taxation. It covers exemptions for state property, agricultural and educational or charitable uses, household goods, and certain life insurance or pension rights. It also discusses homestead tax exemptions and valuation rules for shaded land.
The proposal would let the Legislature decide which agency handles investment of educational trust funds and require approval of governor appointees to the Board of Educational Lands and Funds. It preserves board control under Legislative direction and would allow fee investment per new law. Legislative action continues.
