Summary
Nebraska’s Attorney General is suing Lincoln over its $15 minimum wage law, arguing it violates state law that caps wages and sets lower rates for teens.

With Omaha poised to vote on a similar measure, the AG hopes to block it before it passes — and this case could reshape the balance of power between local governments and state law on wages.
