Call to Action Alert: Support LB1007 to Protect Renters and Stop Silence Clauses in Leases

LB1007 protects renter from unfair financial loss by prohibiting a landlord from keeping a security deposit when a rental agreement is not signed. It also strengthens transparency and accountability by prohibiting nondisclosure clauses in rental agreements, ensuring renters are not pressured into silence about unsafe conditions, unfair practices, or discriminatory treatment. These protections reduce hidden barriers to housing, support more informed decision-making, and promote a rental market that is safer and more equitable for Nebraska families. 

Hearing Schedule

A Judiciary Committee hearing for LB1007 is scheduled for Wednesday, February 4 at 1:30 PM in Room 1525.
