Nebraska Department of Revenue

The Nebraska Department of Revenue is an agency of the Nebraska state government responsible for the administration of state revenue and tax programs. The Nebraska Constitution prohibits use of a property tax, thus most revenue is collected from a state sales tax, use taxes, and a state income tax.[1] The department also oversees the Nebraska Lottery and "Charitable Gaming".[1]
