- Newer law has been passed "https://www.usnews.com/news/us/articles/2024-03-12/nebraska-governor-approves-regulations-to-allow-gender-affirming-care-for-minors https://nebraskalegislature.gov/FloorDocs/108/PDF/Final/LB574.pdf https://nebraskaexaminer.com/2024/03/12/gov-pillen-approves-nebraska-gender-care-regulations/ (same existing sources). The category of "Legal, but banned for minors" is more fitting here, as it says "LB 574 bans all gender affirming care for under 19 years of age", making it not only restricted, but also banned."
