New Tax Cut Bills Signed Into Law

Tax cuts signed into law yesterday will amount to more than $6B reinjected into Nebraskans' pockets and the economy.

NE Chamber expects them to spur transformational growth throughout the state. Making Nebraska a top 15 state for lowest taxes will help retain young Nebraskans and grandparents, says Gov. Jim Pillen. The bills took effect immediately upon signing.

Listen to President Bryan Slone discuss the impact and what's next on KLIN.

LB754 – lowers the top two individual and corporate income tax brackets to 3.99% by FY27 and exempts social security from income taxes starting in tax year 2024, among other provisions. LB754 will deliver over $1.48 billion in tax relief by FY27 and over $3.3 billion by FY29, the largest investment in our state’s history.

LB243 – increases contributions to the Property Tax Credit Fund, takes community colleges off the property tax rolls, and provides caps on local school district spending. Combine this with an increase in state aid to education, and this year’s legislation will deliver over $2.1 billion in property tax relief by FY27 and over $3.3 billion by FY29.
