Conservative Nebraska lawmakers are taking what could be an all-or-nothing bet by proposing to merge two of the session's most contentious proposals — one to restrict abortion access and another that would ban gender-affirming care for transgender minors. The strategy sets up a vote on Tuesday, May 16, 2023 that could give conservatives a win on both abortion and trans health bans this year — or could see them lose both. (Eileen T.
