LB936 repeals eleven sections of law related to amusement licenses issued by county boards for places such as pool halls, bowling alleys, and amusement parks located outside municipal limits. It eliminates the requirement for a license and the associated $10 fee, as well as the penalty for violations.

The Nebraska State Senate passed LB936 on March 7, 2024 by a vote of 44 to 0. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because reducing government-imposed fees, penalties, and oversight of small businesses and the private sector means less government intrusion in our lives. Nebraska should continue enacting legislation that minimizes government interference in the private lives of individuals and businesses.
