Bill Summary

Constitutional amendment to eliminate provisions relating to marriage and marriage licenses

AI Summary

This legislative resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to repeal Article I, section 29 of the Nebraska Constitution, which currently contains provisions related to marriage and marriage licenses. The proposed amendment will be submitted to voters during the general election in November 2026, where electors will have the opportunity to approve or reject the change. The ballot will present a simple "For" or "Against" option for the constitutional amendment, which aims to eliminate existing language about marriage recognition and licensing. If approved by voters, the amendment would remove the current constitutional provisions governing marriage, potentially opening the way for new legislative approaches or interpretations of marriage law in Nebraska.
