Nebraska lawmakers are debating whether the source of the lethal injection drugs needed to carry out executions should be kept secret.
Senator Dan Hughes of Venango argues that if the source isn’t shielded, there won’t be any executions. . .

Senator Patty Pansing Brooks of Lincoln says supporters can go only so far when they point to the successful ballot issue that reinstated the death penalty. . .

Supporters, though, says that if the source of the drugs isn’t kept secret, there will be no executions.
No vote has been taken on the bill.
