Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen has proposed more than $7 billion of property tax relief for residents and agriculture producers.
In his state of the state address on Wednesday, he says property taxes are burdensome and hurting residents. “I am recommending to the Legislature an additional $2.4 billion in property tax cuts for a total of $7.1 billion through fiscal year 2026-27.”
His budget proposal would also include an additional $390 million for the property tax credit relief fund and it would adjust how community colleges and public schools are funded.
