LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska legislative leaders are still trying to decide what action to recommend against a state senator who had cybersex on a state computer with a woman he met online.

Several members of the Legislature’s Executive Board said Friday that they feel the need to address the issue before next year’s session so that new senators aren’t forced to decide the issue.

Committee members will meet again on Aug. 29 at 10:30 a.m. to hear testimony before deciding how to proceed against Sen. Bill Kintner of Papillion.

Kintner says a special session to discipline him is a waste of tax dollars, and any action against him can wait until next year’s session. He says he looks forward to the opportunity to address his colleagues.
