The proposed constitutional amendment aims to change Article I, section 29 of the Nebraska Constitution to allow for the recognition of marriage and the issuance of marriage licenses to couples regardless of their gender and race. This amendment seeks to replace the existing language that defines marriage strictly as a union between a man and a woman, thereby invalidating any civil unions or domestic partnerships for same-sex couples.

If approved, this amendment will be presented to the voters of Nebraska during the general election in November 2026. The ballot will include language indicating that it is a constitutional amendment to change provisions related to marriage, allowing voters to express their support or opposition to the proposed changes.
