Nebraska governor fighting proposals to raise craft beer tax

Gov. Pete Ricketts is joining forces with Nebraska's craft brewers to fight proposals that would raise taxes on craft beer in an effort to reduce property taxes. Ricketts announced simultaneous events dubbed "Raise Glasses, Not Taxes" on March 1 in Omaha, Lincoln and Grand Island. The events are designed to draw the public's attention to LB314 and LB497, both of which would raise taxes on craft beer, spirits, wine and other goods.
