Governor Pete Ricketts told a legislative committee Nebraskans demand property tax relief…and the Unicameral needs to respond this year.
And Ricketts says he’ll keep pushing tax cuts. . .

Yet, his proposal to hold down the growth of local governments is getting opposition from local governmental officials.
Lincoln Mayor Chris Beutler questions the need to fool with a tax system that has worked. . .

The committee will decide later whether to move the measure to the full legislature for debate.
