Specifically, the bill allocates $10,000,000 in each fiscal year to expand undergraduate and graduate nursing programs, with restrictions that the funds can only be used for operating costs like faculty, staff, and equipment, and cannot be used for capital expenditures such as facility construction. Additionally, the bill appropriates $2,500,000 to Nevada State University to support academic programming at its North Las Vegas site and $1,511,999 to Western Nevada College for renovating the Aspen Building on its campus. Any unspent funds from these appropriations must be returned to the State General Fund by September 17, 2027, and cannot be committed for expenditure after June 30, 2027. The bill is set to become effective on July 1, 2025, and aims to support higher education infrastructure and nursing education capacity in Nevada.
