Legislature Debates Busing Ban and District School Board Elections
The Nebraska Legislature debated a federal amendment to ban busing for school integration after a 27 to 15 vote on a related resolution. Senator Ernest Chambers pushed district representation on Omaha schools, with other cities urged to follow. Governor Exon’s stance remains uncertain. Meanwhile Omaha proposed an $8 million state office building funded by cigarette tax revenue. A public health bill to ban smoking in certain public spaces drew committee testimony but no action yet.
