## Resource

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. While Lincoln’s council insists the ordinance boosts economic security for residents, the AG sees cities as subordinate to state authority. 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.
