Description : The Legislature’s Planning Committee plays a critical role in both the Nebraska Unicameral and, more broadly, in our state government’s efforts to plan and prepare for the success and wellbeing of future generations. The Planning Committee works with the University of Nebraska-Omaha’s Center for Public Affairs Research (CPAR), which compiles and presents data about demographics and the workforce to the Committee. The Committee uses that data to set priorities and then makes recommendations to the Legislature for legislation that aligns with those goals.

Description : Since 2009, CPAR has provided data to the Planning Committee of the Nebraska Legislature. The Planning Committee serves to identify the trends, opportunities, and challenges that are shaping Nebraska, and provide their feedback on next steps to the legislature. In November, we presented data on the rainy day fund and on changing demographics of Nebraska.
