AI Summary
This bill establishes a system for the election of members to the Nebraska Medical Cannabis Commission, which is responsible for regulating medical cannabis in the state. Currently, the commission's members are appointed by the Governor, with some serving ex officio from the Nebraska Liquor Control Commission. This bill amends existing laws to transition the commission to an elected body. Specifically, it mandates that starting in 2028, members representing public service commissioner districts one, three, and five will be elected in the general election, with subsequent elections every four years. Members from districts two and four will also be elected in 2028 and 2030, and then every four years thereafter, all serving on a nonpartisan ballot. The bill also clarifies that vacancies on the commission will be filled by appointment by the Governor, and it updates the ballot order to include the Nebraska Medical Cannabis Commission as a nonpartisan office.
