LB 592-this the Dram Shop and Social Host Liability proposal
introduced by Senator Kruse and 13 other senators. The bill
would provide for civil liability for retailers and other
adults who would provide alcohol to a minor or visibly intoxicated

is one of 18 states that do not have some form of social
host liability. See attached Project Extra Mile Op-Ed piece.
