Sen. Rob Clements Column – Inheritance Taxes
November 2, 2020

Between legislative sessions, my office has been working on a study that I introduced last session, LR 415, to reexamine Nebraska’s inheritance tax (death tax) system. I would like to take this opportunity to discuss this with you.

On Tuesday, November 10, the Legislature’s Revenue Committee will have a public hearing on interim study LR 415, to examine Nebraska’s inheritance tax (death tax) as we look to improve the tax structure in the state. It will be held at the Capitol, in Room 1525, at 1:30 p.m. November 10. The public is welcome to testify in person or may testify by submitting written testimony to the Revenue Committee prior to the hearing via letter or email. Regarding emailed testimony, please send to llinehan@leg.ne.gov, with LR 415 in the subject line, state your name in the body, and ask that your “testimony be added to the permanent record”.

The purpose of the study is to collect information from the counties that collect inheritance taxes and from the public to better understand whether to change it, replace it, or repeal it. Currently, only five other states have some form of inheritance tax, which puts Nebraska as an outlier among our peers. Our state ranks among the highest when comparing the rates of the other states. Nebraska taxes heirs at one percent for children, 13 percent for relatives, and 18 percent for all others, which is the highest in the country.

I believe that we can do better as a state in this area. We need to continue to give people more reasons to stay in our state and not leave. This is why I am planning to bring a bill next session to move us forward, taking the information and feedback from this study to either change, replace, or repeal the inheritance tax.

On another note, the Nebraska Economic Forecasting Advisory Board met October 29th and raised the revenue forecast by $285 million for the current fiscal year FY2020-21, $118 million for FY2021-22, and $307 million for FY2022-23. This is good news for Nebraskans who are still struggling to recover from the economic downturn due to the pandemic. Improving revenues means our economy is recovering and people are getting back to work.

Feel free to contact me or my staff for assistance, information, or questions on issues.
You may reach me at: Senator Robert Clements, State Capitol Rm 1120, Lincoln, NE 68509, Phone 402­471­2613, Email: rclements@leg.ne.gov.

Tobacco Compliance among State Tobacco Law Changes


La Vista, NE – Tobacco Education & Advocacy of the Midlands (T.E.A.M.) has completed tobacco compliance checks in La Vista and Plattsmouth between July and October 2020. Out of 24 retailers checked, none of La Vista retailers sold to a minor, while one location in Plattsmouth, DC’s Waterhole, did sell tobacco products to underage youth.

“We are encouraged to continually see the majority of our tobacco retailers taking their responsibility to check identification when selling tobacco products. We consider tobacco retailers our partners in preventing illegal sales of nicotine products to the kids in our community,” stated Autumn Sky Burns, Sarpy County Coordinator for T.E.A.M.

Nebraska State Senator Tom Briese introduced legislative bill (LB) 1064 that passed unanimously at final vote took effect October 1st. The law makes it illegal to sell cigarettes, cigars, electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS), alternative nicotine products and tobacco products to anyone under 21 years of age. It also raised the legal age for use of those products to age 21.

Electronic smoking device retail outlets are affected through this law. Until January 1, 2022, they shall not allow a person under twenty-one years of age to enter the store but may allow an employee who is under twenty-one years of age to work in the store. On and after January 1, 2022, an electronic smoking device retail outlet shall not allow a person under twenty-one years of age to enter the store and shall not allow an employee who is under twenty-one years of age to work in the store.

NE State Senator Sue Crawford’s amendment to LB1064, allows individuals between ages 15 and 20 to assist law enforcement in compliance checks of tobacco vendors with written consent of a parent or legal guardian. Youth volunteers use their own identification and make no attempt to appear older than the legal purchase age.

Other relevant tobacco law changes include LB840, which adds electronic smoking devices to the definition of smoking in the Nebraska Clean Indoor Air Act, which prohibits their use in a place of employment or public place with the exception of “electronic smoking device retail outlets” starting November 14th.

LB840, introduced by Senator Mike Quick and cosponsored by Senators Crawford, Hansen, Pansing Brooks, Walz and Kolowski passed final reading with 33 votes. Sarpy Senators Arch, Blood, & Crawford voted yes whille Sarpy Senator La Grone and Cass Senator Clements were present but did not vote.

T.E.A.M. is a coalition of health-related organizations, educational and community groups, and individuals that meet monthly to educate and advocate for healthy tobacco-free communities. T.E.A.M. has collaborated with the La Vista Police Department to check tobacco license holders on a regular basis since 2006. For more information, including technical assistance with complying with the new law call 402-593-3022, email Info@TeamTobaccoFree.org or visit www.TeamTobaccoFree.org.

Significant Enhancements to Nebraska’s Enable Law

State Will Not Seek Recovery for Medicaid Expenses upon the Death of an Enable Savings Plan Beneficiary

Lincoln, Neb. (October 28, 2020) – The Enable Savings Plan today announced a rule update in accordance with LB705, signed by Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts on August 6, 2020. Effective November 13, upon the death of an Enable Savings Plan account designated beneficiary, the state will not seek repayment from the beneficiary’s Enable account for medical assistance that the beneficiary, a spouse or dependent received through Medicaid while the Enable account was open.

More broadly, the revised law stipulates that in the case of a designated beneficiary’s death, the owner of the Enable account or the beneficiary’s personal representative may transfer the balance of the account to another Enable account specified by the account owner, the designated beneficiary or the estate of the designated beneficiary. Prior to the revised law, this type of transfer could only occur when the designated beneficiary was alive.

“The Enable Savings Plan is an invaluable tool for financial stability and independence for families in Nebraska and nationwide, and I want to commend Nebraska State Senator Dave Murman for his hard work on this issue,” said Nebraska State Treasurer John Murante. “We are proud to implement this change in the law, which will eliminate a major concern for families – the disposition of the assets in an Enable account upon the passing of the beneficiary. We are proud to provide ways to help ease the financial burden of a loved one’s passing, allowing family to devote more time to their emotional healing.”

Launched in June 2016, the Enable Savings Plan was one of the first national ABLE savings plans offered. Enable provides tax-free savings accounts to people with disabilities, allowing them to save without affecting their eligibility for public benefits like Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

“The Enable Savings Plan works tirelessly to create the best possible savings resource for individuals with disabilities and their loved ones,” said Deborah Goodkin, Managing Director, Savings Plans, First National Bank of Omaha. “We are constantly energized by the diverse and joyous Enable community, and with every update we make, we strive to create a plan that best meets its present and future needs.”

About the Enable Savings Plan
Enable is a tax-advantaged savings plan to help make saving simple and affordable for individuals with disabilities. Nebraska State Treasurer John Murante serves as Trustee. First National Bank of Omaha serves as Program Manager, and investments are approved by the Nebraska Investment Council. Visit enablesavings.com and treasurer.nebraska.gov for more information.

 red cross

OCTOBER 21, 2020 — The American Red Cross is urging healthy donors of all blood types to give blood or platelets to ensure a strong blood supply for patients as the U.S. braces for flu season while in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Flu shot doesn’t affect blood donation eligibility.

Medical experts are urging people to get the flu shot to avoid a flu epidemic on top of the current COVID-19 pandemic. Because blood can only be given by those who are feeling well, a severe flu season could create additional challenges to maintaining a sufficient blood supply for hospital patients in need.

Get the flu vaccine this year to help protect the nation from the virus but also to ensure that patients continue to have access to lifesaving blood products. There is no waiting period to give blood or platelets after receiving a flu shot as long as the donor is symptom-free and fever-free. There is no risk of transmitting the influenza virus after receiving a flu vaccination.

For those that have the flu, it is important to wait until they no longer exhibit flu symptoms, have recovered completely and feel well before attempting to donate. Donors must feel healthy and well on the day of donation.

Stay healthy this flu season and make an appointment to donate blood by downloading the Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device.

In thanks for making time to donate, the Red Cross will send those who come to give Oct. 15-Nov. 11 a $5 Amazon.com Gift Card via email, courtesy of Suburban Propane. Plus, those who come to give in October are automatically entered for a chance to win a $1,000 Amazon.com Gift Card. Five lucky people will win. (Restrictions apply. Additional information and details are available at RedCrossBlood.org/Unite.)

Important COVID-19 information for donors

The Red Cross is testing blood, platelet and plasma donations for COVID-19 antibodies. The test may indicate if the donor’s immune system has produced antibodies to this coronavirus, regardless of whether an individual developed COVID-19 symptoms. Red Cross antibody tests will be helpful to identify individuals who have COVID-19 antibodies and may now help current coronavirus patients in need of convalescent plasma transfusions. Convalescent plasma is a type of blood donation collected from COVID-19 survivors that have antibodies that may help patients who are actively fighting the virus.

COVID-19 antibody test results will be available within one to two weeks in the Red Cross Blood Donor App or donor portal at RedCrossBlood.org. A positive antibody test result does not confirm infection or immunity. The Red Cross is not testing donors to diagnose illness, referred to as a diagnostic test. To protect the health and safety of Red Cross staff and donors, it is important that individuals who do not feel well or believe they may be ill with COVID-19 postpone donation.

Each Red Cross blood drive and donation center follows the highest standards of safety and infection control, and additional precautions – including temperature checks, social distancing and face coverings for donors and staff – have been implemented to help protect the health of all those in attendance. Donors are asked to schedule an appointment prior to arriving at the drive and are required to wear a face covering or mask while at the drive, in alignment with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention public guidance.

About blood donation
Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org, call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enable the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass® to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, before arriving at the blood drive. To get started, follow the instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App.

About the American Red Cross
The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; supplies about 40% of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a not-for-profit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.

ONE BOOK NEBRASKA LOGO x 1NE CENTER for the BOOK LOGO

 

Prairie Forge: The Extraordinary Story of the Nebraska Scrap Metal Drive of World War II Chosen as 2021 One Book One Nebraska

People across Nebraska are encouraged to read the work of a Nebraskan —and then talk about it with their friends and neighbors. Prairie Forge: The Extraordinary Story of the Nebraska Scrap Metal Drive of World War II (Bison Books, 2014) by James J. Kimble, is the 2021 One Book One Nebraska selection.

Prairie Forge: The Extraordinary Story of the Nebraska Scrap Metal Drive of World War II takes readers across the entire state of Nebraska during the scrap metal drive early in America's involvement in World War II. When Henry Doorly initially developed a plan to urge citizens to donate scrap metal to help with arms production, he had no idea that his plan would expand from Omaha to the entire state and then be used as a model for a national scrap drive. Readers from the selection committee felt that this book would draw readers into good discussions about the entire state's participation in the challenge to provide scrap metal. Readers were impressed that the book covered every county's participation in the Nebraska Plan, and how this fit into the larger effort on a national level.

Libraries across Nebraska will join other literary and cultural organizations in planning book discussions, activities, and events that will encourage Nebraskans to read and discuss this book. Support materials to assist with local reading/discussion activities will be available after January 1, 2021 at http://onebook.nebraska.gov. Updates and activity listings will be posted on the One Book One Nebraska Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/onebookonenebraska.

2021 will mark the seventeenth year of the One Book One Nebraska reading program, sponsored by the Nebraska Center for the Book. It encourages Nebraskans across the state to read and discuss one book, chosen from books written by Nebraska authors or that have a Nebraska theme or setting. The Nebraska Center for the Book invites recommendations for One Book One Nebraska book selection year-round at http://centerforthebook.nebraska.gov/obon-nomination.asp.

One Book One Nebraska is sponsored by the Nebraska Center for the Book, Humanities Nebraska, and the Nebraska Library Commission. The Nebraska Center for the Book brings together the state’s readers, writers, booksellers, librarians, publishers, printers, educators, and scholars to build the community of the book, supporting programs to celebrate and stimulate public interest in books, reading, and the written word. The Nebraska Center for the Book is housed at and supported by the Nebraska Library Commission.

As the state library agency, the Nebraska Library Commission is an advocate for the library and information needs of all Nebraskans. The mission of the Library Commission is statewide promotion, development, and coordination of library and information services, “bringing together people and information.”

2020 10 07 LOGO CHILD SAVING INSTITUTE

All children need a secure place to learn and grow. The ideal place should be in their own home, however many kids are not that fortunate.

In times of neglect or abuse, a child must sometimes be removed from their home at a moment's noticed and placed in a warm, safe place. Kids of all ages, from birth through high school, sometimes need the help of the Child Saving Institute.

CSI helps foster parents and biological families learn the skills they need for a safe, well-cared-for, and loving family life.During this unsettling time of covid-19, the Murray Christian Church is collecting essential cleaning items for the Child Saving Institute.

If you would like to donate, here are some things they could use:Pine Sol, Lysol Disinfectant Spray, sanitizing wipes, latex and powder-free disposable gloves, (L & XL), and hand sanitizer.

Please bring items to Murray Christian Church, 304 W Young St, Murray, NE on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays, between the hours of 10 - 2:00. You may call the church ahead of time, 402-235-2527, to be sure someone will be there to assist you.

Thank you for helping to keep these children, (and the CSI staff), healthy and happy!

Even during the summer and amid the Covid19 crisis, the Conestoga Backpack Program continues to furnish food to local families in need. The program serves the Murray, Nehawka, Union and Beaver Lake areas in southeast Nebraska, and will not turn anyone away.

Just by adding a few of the items listed below to your shopping list and picking them up, you'll be helping someone in a big way. Keep in mind that some of the children are very young and are possibly 'preparing' their own meals, so easy-to-open containers are a good option for little hands.


Canned or boxed pasta
Canned soup
Granola bars
Fruit snacks
Dry pasta
Spaghetti sauce
Dry soup mixes
Canned meat (chicken, tuna)
Boxed prepared meal kits (Hamburger Helper, Rice-a-Roni)
Peanut butter
Jelly
Canned fruit and vegetables

Also needed are hygienic supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, cotton swabs, tissues and toilet paper.

To make a monetary donation instead, please a check made payable to CONESTOGA BACKPACK PROGRAM may be mailed or deposited at Cornerstone Bank, 102 W Main St, Murray, NE 68409. 100% of all monies collected is used for food and hygienic supplies for the families.

To have the items picked up, call Jill at 402-660-3543 to make arrangements. As another alternative, you may drop them off at Cornerstone Bank in Murray or at their Beaver Lake location.

Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

ARE YOU 55+

and

LOOKING FOR PART-TIME WORK?

The following is an employment opportunity available to older adults in Cass County.

Experience Works is a national, non-profit organization funded by the US Dept of Labor to administer the Senior Community Service Employment Program, which assists people 55 and older in getting updated training to assist in returning to the workforce. This is a federally funded program and offers a no-cost employment service to older adults who qualify.
Once accepted into the program, individuals are placed in a training site in or near their community, where they gain on the job experience while working 20-21 hours/week at $8/hour.
We also help with skill assessments, computer training, resumes, cover letters, job search, etc.
The goal is that through the training and job search assistance we gain help older adults gain good jobs in or around their communities.
