AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Pharma Accountability: Nebraska Attorney General Aaron Ford joined a 43-state coalition announcing a $400 million settlement in principle with Sandoz over alleged generic-drug price-fixing and competition limits, with about $469 million total expected to flow to state enforcers if approved. Food Safety: Taylor Farms recalled 20 jalapeño-containing products tied to a multistate Salmonella outbreak that has sickened hundreds across 27 states, with major retailers including Walmart, Kroger, Target and Trader Joe’s affected. Statehouse Watch: Nebraska lawmakers approved LB1096, expanding biosecurity and foreign-principal contract restrictions tied to agricultural and critical infrastructure threats, and passed LB1048 to streamline and consolidate government reporting requirements. Workforce Data Policy: Sen. Robert Dover filed LB1247 to require postsecondary institutions to participate in Nebraska’s workforce and education reporting system, tying Career Scholarship Act funding to data-sharing and outcome reporting. Higher Ed vs. Federal Law: The U.S. Justice Department sued New York, Connecticut and Vermont over in-state tuition and aid for undocumented students, arguing it discriminates against U.S. citizens. Business & Tech: UNL and the Nebraska State College System plan a major SAP ERP overhaul as older on-prem software support ends, with a budget request seeking $55 million. Energy Prices: GasBuddy reported Nebraska regular gas averaging about $3.93 per gallon for the week ending Aug. 1, with county-by-county lows ranging into the high $3s.
