Nebraska Legislature Convenes January 4 The Fi rst Session of the 108th Nebraska Leg i s lat ure i s schedu led to convene on Wednesday, Jan. 4, 2023, with 26 new and returning state senators taking the oath of office. Although the political makeup of the body is not changing, whether newly elected or appointed, the level of legislative experience will be significant. This lack of institutional knowledge and experience is likely to create challenges; however, with so many new leaders in the body and a newly elected governor, it’s also an exciting time for our state. 2023 will be a “long session,” whereby the Nebraska Constitution requires the Legislature to meet for no more than 90 legislative days. (No more than 60 legislative days are required in even years.) Presently, the session is expected to last until the second week of June. The only item state senators are required to complete is the budget, but the list of issues that legislators wish to address is long and includes tax reform, K-12 school funding, criminal justice reform, ARPA funding, guns/constitutional carry, and abortion. Through our lobbying team at Radcliffe, Gilbertson, and Brady, the Society will be keeping a close eye on any and all issues that could affect the accounting profession, including licensing reform and the taxation of accounting services. Stay tuned. Thank You! Thank you for your membership and loyal support of the Nebraska Society of CPAs. We look forward to serving you throughout 2023 and the years to come!
