The bill passed 45-0-4 in the Senate after advancing through the Government, Military and Veterans Affairs Committee. This legislation imposes new disclosure and accountability requirements on entities connected to Chinese military operations.
What changed
LB904 enacts new requirements relating to Chinese military companies under the Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act. The bill was introduced by Senator John Arch and advanced through the legislative process with unanimous support in committee and near-unanimous passage on Final Reading.
