Bill > LR336

This resolution acknowledges and celebrates the work of community groups and individuals in Nebraska who are raising awareness for the "Bring Her Home" efforts, which aim to address the epidemic of missing Black women and children. The resolution highlights that Nebraska is affected by this issue, with hundreds of Black women and children going missing annually, and notes that these cases are sometimes mishandled by being mislabeled as runaways, delaying critical search efforts. It references the tragic cases of Camisha Hollis, Tyler Thomas, and Amber Harris, whose stories exemplify the hundreds of other missing individuals whose plights need to be brought to light, and emphasizes the state's commitment to protecting women and children by improving reporting and investigation processes to help bring missing Black individuals home to their families.
