The Nebraska State Constitution: A Reference Guide
The Nebraska Constitution is one of the oldest state constitutions in America. It has been amended nearly 200 times, with important changes including a unicameral legislature. The constitutional history recounted in the first part of the volume describes fiery debates over major issues even today--such as personal property tax, clemency, cases the state can take to court, reimbursement of depositors in failed savings and loan companies, to mention just a few. The full text of the constitution and its detailed analysis with new interpretations over the years is presented for easy reference and careful study. |
