Four Cent Gas Tax Passes Senate and Heads to House
The Bowring four cent gasoline tax bill cleared the state senate with a two thirds majority and moves back to the house for concurrence in minor amendments and the emergency clause. Opponents from Omaha cited unfair distribution while attempts to amend the bill, including allocating funds to Douglas County and exemptions for farm use, were defeated. The measure had previously passed the house with 57 votes.
