Bill Summary

A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to transportation; to amend section 75-327, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska; to change provisions relating to dynamic pricing used by transportation network companies during states of emergency declared by the Governor; and to repeal the original section.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Nebraska law concerning transportation network companies, which are services like Uber or Lyft that connect passengers with drivers through an online platform. Specifically, it changes the rules around "dynamic pricing," also known as surge pricing, which allows these companies to increase fares during periods of high demand. Previously, dynamic pricing was prohibited during a state of emergency declared by the Governor. This bill now permits dynamic pricing during such emergencies, unless the Governor specifically prohibits it in the emergency declaration or a separate executive order, and any prohibition would be for a limited time. For areas not under a state of emergency, dynamic pricing remains permitted. The bill also repeals the original law it amends.
