Summary

The Guest Worker Permit Act would require undocumented individuals who want to work in Nebraska to obtain a state permit before or within 30 days of starting a contract job. The permit can be used as identification but cannot be used to claim public benefits or to work outside Nebraska. Eligibility depends on age, Nebraska residency, lack of a serious criminal conviction, health‑insurance coverage and other documentation.
