Further, he also enacted a school board redistricting plan that was only partially modified by the Nebraska Supreme Court.[1][2]

In February 2013, he was arrested for a DUI near 147th and Maple Streets in Omaha. His blood-alcohol level was .237, which is nearly three times the legal limit in Nebraska. In June 2013 he was sentenced to 2 days in jail, a year probation, and a $500 fine.[3][4]

He was Chairman of the Rules Committee for the Nebraska Legislature; and sat on the Judiciary, and Transportation and Telecommunications committees.

In the November 2008 General Election, Senator Lautenbaugh defeated his challenger, Carl Lorenzen, to earn the right to serve the remaining two years of Senator Mines' term. Lautenbaugh was reelected in 2010 to an additional four-year term as state senator.

Lautenbaugh resigned from the Legislature before the end of his term, in November 2014, in order to become a lobbyist.[5]
