Public access proposal
defeated in Legislature
From Staff Reports
Legislators defeated a proposal
Monday designed to protect citizen
access to public records and prevent
electronic media companies from
gaining a monopoly on the dissemi
nation of public information.
Amendment 1468 to LB590,
sponsored by Sen. Curt Bromm of
Wahoo, would have required state
agencies to provide public records
in any form requested by citizens
and at a reasonable cost.
Supporters argued the measure
was necessary for preventing agen
cies from denying citizens informa
tion in written form on the grounds
that it was available through the
state’s developing Gateway system.
Gateway, which is a joint effort
of the state government and Ne
braska Online, refers to any central
ized electronic information system
by which government agencies can
provide information regarding pub
lic records. Supporters warned that
if Gateway became the sole means
for obtaining public records, a mo
nopoly would be created.
“I am agreeable to creating
Gateway, but I do not support mak
ing that the exclusive method of
getting information,” Bromm said.
Opponents argued that the mea
sure would undermine efforts to
streamline government records and
their distribution.
