The current legal majority age in Nebraska is 19. While the majority age in most states is 18. In the state of Nebraska, an 18 year old can purchase tobacco, vote, enlist in the military, and apply for a credit card. However, one cannot make the adult decision of signing a lease to move out without a parent's consent. This becomes an inconvenience for teens wanting to take on the responsibility of moving out of their parent/guardian's home, in order to begin a new chapter of their lives or break free from a troubled home life. Not to mention, it also becomes an issue for out of state students who move to the state of Nebraska for college. Changing the majority age in Nebraska would allow any 18 year old to have the same privileges as those in most other state, and prevent inconveniences.
