A Nebraska think tank praises the legislature’s decision to review all 200-plus occupational licenses required by the state…and says excessive license requirements harms the state economy.

Fox says Nebraska is only the 4th state to pass such legislation
The Platte Institute argues some license requirements grew out of efforts by members of an occupation attempting to protect their turf.
