Unpacking The Unicameral 2026, Week 7

I'm stoked you're tuning in to hear about what went down in the unicameral last week and what's on the docket for the upcoming week.

One bill we discussed that had a hearing last week is LB 855, introduced by Senator McKinney. This bill would establish an early intervention system to catch youth and provide supportive services before they enter the juvenile justice and child welfare systems.

Looking ahead, one bill we chatted about is scheduled for a hearing this week is The Hunger-Free Schools Act, designated as LB 966. Introduced by Senator Cavanaugh, this act proposes to expand eligibility for free school meals in Nebraska.
