AI Summary

This bill proposes changes to Nebraska's sales and use tax laws, specifically amending sections 77-2701.02 and 77-27,132 of the Revised Statutes. The primary changes involve adjusting the sales and use tax rate, with a new rate of "XX percent" to be implemented starting July 1, 2027, and also modifying how tax revenue is distributed among various state funds. For instance, the bill alters the distribution of sales and use taxes collected on motor vehicles, trailers, and semitrailers, directing a portion of any tax rate exceeding "five" percent to the Highway Allocation Fund instead of the Highway Trust Fund. Additionally, it clarifies the application of the sales tax rate within "good life districts," which are areas designated for specific development projects under the Good Life Transformational Projects Act. The bill also specifies that these changes will become effective on July 1, 2027, and repeals the original sections of law that are being amended.
