Episode Details

Attorney General Mike Hilgers is suing Omaha over its new minimum wage law, claiming it’s an unconstitutional power grab that violates state statutes—this is his second similar lawsuit, after one against Lincoln. The city council passed the ordinance in July, but Hilgers argues it undermines statewide wage caps and could raise prices, while local officials defend it as a voter-backed measure. A judge previously blocked Lincoln’s version, and Hilgers now seeks the same for Omaha, potentially reshaping how cities handle wage policy in Nebraska.
