Nebraska·2026·Initiative·Pending Certification
Summary
Pending certification for the November 2026 ballot. Would require the state to fully fund Nebraska's Medicaid expansion program and prohibit work requirements or waiting periods for eligible enrollees.
Arguments

Ensures thousands of low-income Nebraskans maintain access to healthcare coverage without being subject to bureaucratic hurdles that cause eligible people to lose coverage.
Against
Opponents argue work requirements promote self-sufficiency and that full funding without conditions places an unsustainable obligation on the state budget.
