Bill Summary

Declaring April 2025 as Financial Literacy Month.

AI Summary

This concurrent resolution declares April 2025 as Financial Literacy Month in Nevada, recognizing the critical importance of financial education and capability for individuals and communities. The resolution highlights several key findings, including an Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) survey showing that 17 percent of 15-year-olds in the United States lack fundamental financial skills, and a study indicating that 92 percent of incoming college students feel they need more education about paying off college loans. Building on previous legislative efforts like Senate Bill No. 314 (2019) and Assembly Bill (2023), which established the State Financial Literacy Advisory Council and expanded financial literacy instruction in schools, the resolution aims to raise public awareness about the need for improved financial knowledge. The document emphasizes that financial literacy directly impacts individual and community financial health, and cites research showing that high school financial education can lead to better financial aid decisions and more responsible borrowing. The resolution calls for the Secretary of the Senate to distribute copies of the resolution to key state officials and financial organizations, signaling a collaborative approach to promoting financial education across Nevada.
