The resolution proposes an interim study to investigate issues related to assaults in Nebraska, focusing on the current legal framework governing assaults, particularly those targeting individuals in specific professions while they perform their duties. The study aims to explore the possibility of expanding protections to include additional professions and to address other relevant concerns regarding assaults in the state.
The Judiciary Committee of the Nebraska Legislature is tasked with conducting this interim study. Upon completion, the committee is required to report its findings and recommendations to the Legislative Council or the Legislature, ensuring that the insights gained from the study can inform future legislative actions and policies regarding assault-related issues in Nebraska.
