LINCOLN- Over a dozen state lawmakers met with Gov. Pillen in the Governor's Mansion early on Thursday to discuss property taxes. According to several senators, the group meeting with Pillen was asked to keep the discussion confidential.

"There was a meeting this morning, yes, at the Governor's Mansion," said Sen. Lou Ann Linehan, "The subject was 'What are we going to do about property taxes?'" While Linehan, at the request of the governor, withheld specific details, she said that no concrete plan came of Thursday's discussion.

Gov. Pillen is planning to call the Legislature back to Lincoln for a special session to deal with the issue of property taxes, but also indicated that there's no point in doing so if there isn't a solid plan that has support from the 33 lawmakers needed to overcome a potential filibuster.
