Nebraska

Digital Ads
Overview: In 2024, Nebraska lawmakers proposed a digital ads tax. While it did not pass, the issue is likely to resurface in the 2026 legislative session.
Digital advertising gives Nebraska’s small businesses an affordable, effective way to reach new customers. These tools help level the playing field, allowing local businesses to compete with larger companies while maintaining strong relationships with their customers.
That’s why it’s critical for lawmakers to support legislation that protects — rather than restricts — small businesses’ access to digital advertising.
