Nebraska Seeks Funds for Services to Aid People on Wait List


LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska needs to continue to whittle down a list of 2,200 people with developmental disabilities waiting for services, Omaha Sen. Steve Lathrop and others told the Appropriations Committee on Tuesday afternoon. 
Lathrop introduced a bill (LB375) in this session of the Legislature that would appropriate money for services for people on the waiting list. The Legislature's preliminary budget proposes spending $1.9 million in 2013-14 and $3.9 million the next year for those services.
