Not law. Nebraska LB1083, introduced by Senator Storer, would have enacted the Transparency in Artificial Intelligence Risk Management Act. Large frontier developers (frontier models trained with more than 10^26 operations; revenue of $500 million or more) and large chatbot providers (revenue of $25 million or more) would have had to publish safety and child protection plans; frontier developers would have reported critical safety incidents and large chatbot providers child safety incidents to the Attorney General, with penalties up to $1,000,000 or $50,000 per violation. Placed on General File March 24, 2026; indefinitely postponed April 17, 2026.
Adopt the Artificial Intelligence Consumer Protection Act
Not law. Nebraska LB642, introduced by Senator Bostar, would have enacted the Artificial Intelligence Consumer Protection Act. Developers and deployers of high-risk AI systems that make consequential decisions without human review would have had to use reasonable care against algorithmic discrimination, with impact assessments, consumer notices and appeals, and Attorney General enforcement after a 90-day cure period. Indefinitely postponed April 17, 2026.
Prohibit distributing deepfakes under the Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act
Not law. Nebraska LB615, introduced by Senator John Cavanaugh, would have barred distributing a deceptive and fraudulent deepfake of a candidate or party within 90 days before an election, if the distributor knew or should have known what it was. A disclaimer saying the media was manipulated or generated by artificial intelligence would have made the ban inapplicable, and a depicted candidate could have sought an injunction. Indefinitely postponed April 17, 2026.
Adopt the Conversational Artificial Intelligence Safety Act
Not law as a stand-alone bill. Nebraska LB1185 would have enacted the Conversational Artificial Intelligence Safety Act, requiring chatbot operators to disclose they are AI, add protections for minor account holders, and keep a suicide and self-harm protocol, enforced by the Attorney General. LB1185 was indefinitely postponed April 17, 2026, but its provisions were amended into LB525 (AM2444), which the Governor approved April 14, 2026, with the chatbot act operative July 1, 2027.
Adopt the Agricultural Data Privacy Act and the Conversational Artificial Intelligence Safety Act
Nebraska's LB 525 creates the Conversational Artificial Intelligence Safety Act, operative July 1, 2027, and an Agricultural Data Privacy Act. Operators of public AI chat services must tell minors they are talking to AI, take reasonable measures to prevent sexual content and claims of being human, sentient or emotionally or romantically attached for minors, offer privacy and parental tools, disclose AI to anyone who could be misled, keep a suicide and self-harm referral protocol, and not claim to provide mental health care. The Attorney General enforces: at least $1,000 per violation, up to $500,000 per operator. Signed April 14, 2026.

Not a law. Nebraska LR421 (2026), introduced by Senator Storer, is an interim study resolution that designates the Banking, Commerce and Insurance Committee to study the status of state and federal artificial intelligence legislation addressing public safety risks and what Nebraska should do. It cites LB1083. Introduced March 24, 2026, it was referred to the Executive Board and then, on March 30, 2026, to that committee; no hearing or report is shown. A resolution does not change the law.
Adopt the Ensuring Transparency in Prior Authorization Act and provide for insurance and medicaid coverage of biomarker testing
Nebraska's LB 77 (2025) adopts the Ensuring Transparency in Prior Authorization Act. Its AI section says an artificial intelligence-based algorithm may not be the sole basis for a utilization review agent's decision to deny, delay or modify health care services based on medical necessity. Agents must disclose to the Department of Insurance, to every network provider, to every enrollee and on their public website whether AI-based algorithms are or will be used in utilization review. The department may audit an agent's automated utilization management system at any time, including through a third party. The section is operative January 1, 2026.
Adopt the Age-Appropriate Online Design Code Act
Nebraska's LB 504 (2025), the Age-Appropriate Online Design Code Act, applies to covered online services that know a user is a minor. Among the tools a service must give each covered minor, it must let the minor control personalized recommendation systems, defined as fully or partially automated systems that suggest, promote or rank content based on users' personal data, by opting in to a chronological feed or preventing categories of content from being recommended. It also requires tools to limit engagement-boosting design features such as infinite scroll and notifications, and to limit in-game purchases. Approved May 30, 2025; operative January 1, 2026.
Adopt the Parental Rights in Social Media Act, rename the Child Pornography Prevention Act, and prohibit conduct involving computer-generate…
Nebraska's LB 383 (2025) renames the Child Pornography Prevention Act the Child Sexual Abuse Material Prevention Act and covers AI-made images. Child sexual abuse material now includes an obscene depiction of a computer-generated person who is, or appears to a reasonable person to be, a child. Computer-generated means a depiction created, adapted or modified with a computer, digital program, artificial intelligence or similar means. Making or generating such material, distributing it, possessing it with intent to distribute, and possessing or receiving it are crimes, with felony penalties.

The last official action was a hearing notice for September 19, 2024. A resolution does not change the law.
