The proposed bill, known as the Uniform Unlawful Restrictions in Land Records Act, aims to establish a legal framework for addressing unlawful restrictions in land records within Nebraska. It defines key terms such as "amendment," "unlawful restriction," and "governing instrument," and outlines the process by which property owners can submit amendments to remove unlawful restrictions from their property records. Specifically, the bill allows property owners to record amendments that eliminate restrictions based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status, disability, or other personal characteristics, which violate state or federal law. Additionally, it provides a mechanism for governing bodies of associations to amend governing instruments to remove such restrictions without requiring a vote from the members.

The bill also stipulates that amendments must be properly documented and recorded, including a conspicuous statement regarding the removal of unlawful restrictions. It ensures that the recorder's office is not liable for recording these amendments and emphasizes the importance of uniformity in the application of the law across jurisdictions. Furthermore, the act modifies certain provisions of the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, while maintaining the integrity of other related federal laws. Overall, this legislation seeks to promote fair property practices and eliminate discriminatory restrictions in land records.
