Appropriation Bill

LB 177A appropriates $233,030 from the General Fund and $135,750 from the Nebraska State Patrol Cash Fund for fiscal year 2025-26 to the Nebraska State Patrol for Program 100. This funding supports the implementation of Legislative Bill 177 (passed in the same session) by providing resources for specific state patrol operations. The bill caps total salary and per diem expenses at $179,591 for 2025-26 and allocates no funds for 2026-27. It is a straightforward funding measure with no new policy changes, solely providing financial support for an existing legislative initiative.
