NEBRASKA LAWMAKERS VOTED THURSDAY TO SUSPEND LEGISLATIVE RULES TO MOVE UP THE PROCEEDINGS SURROUNDING NEBRASKA STATE SENATOR DAN MCKEON.
HE WAS CITED IN OCTOBER FOR MISDEMEANOR PUBLIC INDECENCY AFTER HE ALLEGEDLY INAPPROPRIATELY TOUCHED A WOMAN OVER HER CLOTHES AT A PARTY IN LINCOLN.
THAT LED TO THE NEBRASKA UNICAMERAL EXECUTIVE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDING TO EXPEL MCKEON FROM THE LEGISLATURE.
NORMALLY, SEVEN-DAYS OF NOTICE IS REQUIRED TO SCHEDULE A HEARING, BUT AFTER VOTING TO SUSPEND THAT RULE, THE EXPULSION HEARING WAS SET FOR NEXT MONDAY, JANUARY 12TH.
