Discrimination in the enjoyment of places of public accommodation is
prohibited in Nebraska on the basis of race, color, national origin, ancestry,
religion, or sex. Covered entities generally include any establishment
offering goods and services to the general public. Limited exemptions
exist for bona fide private clubs and public accommodations owned or operated by
religious organizations.
Unlawful practices generally include actual or attempted refusal, withholding
or denial of services, privileges or facilities of public accommodations, and
segregation in places of public accommodations.
The law also contains provisions barring retaliation. Anyone
who has opposed any practice made unlawful by the statutes or who has participated
in any manner in any proceeding to enforce the statutes is protected. There is a filing deadline. From the
date of any alleged harm, the time limit for a Public Accommodations charge is 10 days. If
you believe you
have been discriminated against, act quickly.
