Repeal passes Round 2 in Nebraska

Today, lawmakers in Nebraska again voted overwhelmingly – 30-16! – to repeal the death penalty.

This vote came after Round 2 of debate. There is still one more vote to win before the bill goes to the Governor’s desk. And if the Governor vetoes the bill – as he has promised – supporters need to hold on to all votes to override it.
