Interim study to examine a stair-stepping approach to public assistance eligibility

Summary

The resolution directs Nebraska’s Health and Human Services Committee to examine whether phasing out public assistance gradually as incomes rise could save costs and improve outcomes. It would look at potential benefits for taxpayers and recipients, such as reduced dependency, lower administrative costs, and smoother transitions off aid. Findings would be reported to the Legislative Council or the full Legislature.
