LGBT rights in Nebraska : ウィキペディア英語版 | LGBT rights in Nebraska
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) persons in the U.S. state of Nebraska face some legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents. Same-sex sexual activity is legal in Nebraska, as is same-sex marriage. Same-sex couples and families headed by same-sex couples do not have the same protections as opposite-sex couples. ==Laws against homosexuality== All sodomy laws were repealed at the state level when a revised criminal code was enacted in June 1977, effective July 1, 1978.〔William N. Eskridge, ''Dishonorable Passions: Sodomy Laws in America, 1861-2003'' (NY: Penguin Group, 2008), 201n, (available online ), accessed April 10, 2010〕〔Laws of Nebraska 1977, page 88, enacted June 1, 1977, effective July 1, 1978〕 The state's unicameral legislature accomplished the repeal by overriding the veto of the original legislation by Governor J. James Exon by the minimum margin, 32 to 15. No other state repealed its sodomy criminalization statute by such a veto override. The extent to which the state's anti-sodomy statute was enforced is unclear; Nebraska has no published sodomy cases during the 1950s or 1960s. Like many other states, Nebraska enacted a "psychopathic offender" law in the years after World War II. The Nebraska Bar Association objected when that law was revised to cover a first offense. A study showed that 7% of commitments under the law were for consenting adult gay men.〔()〕
