This bill proposes the adoption of the Uniform Public Expression Protection Act in Nebraska, which aims to safeguard the rights of individuals to engage in public discourse without fear of legal repercussions. The act establishes definitions for key terms such as "goods or services" and "governmental unit," and outlines the circumstances under which the act applies to civil actions related to public expression. It also provides a mechanism for parties to file a special motion for expedited relief to dismiss such actions, with specific procedures for stays of proceedings and timelines for court hearings.

Additionally, the bill repeals existing provisions related to public petition and participation, specifically sections 25-21,241 through 25-21,246 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska. It includes a severability clause to ensure that if any part of the act is deemed invalid, the remaining sections will still be enforceable. The act is designed to take effect immediately upon passage, reflecting the urgency of its implementation.
