Nebraska LB1017 amends the Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act to limit contributions to a candidate committee to $3,500 per election period, beginning January 1, 2027. The bill requires candidate committees to refund any contributions exceeding this amount and report them on campaign statements. The limit will be adjusted every two years based on the Consumer Price Index. This provision does not apply to a candidate's personal funds contributed to their own committee.
