AB 218: Requests that the Nevada Supreme Court study and adopt rules governing procedures for notifying defendants and persons who are issued a civil infraction citation of certain information. (BDR S-535)

AB 218 requires Nevada courts to establish text message notification systems for criminal defendants, people issued civil citations (such as traffic tickets), and juveniles in court. The law mandates three pre-court date reminders (7, 3, and 1 days prior), allows users to opt in/out or update contact information, and requires courts to collect valid phone numbers during arrests or citations. The Court Administrator must convene a working group to study best practices and submit annual reports on program implementation. This affects anyone involved in court proceedings needing case notifications, directly changing how courts communicate with these individuals.

AB 599: Revises provisions governing the Nevada Educational Choice Scholarship Program. (BDR 34-1157)

AB 599 expands Nevada's Educational Choice Scholarship Program by increasing the annual tax credit cap for businesses donating to scholarship organizations from $6.655 million to $8.725 million for 2025-2026 and $10.725 million for 2026-2027 and beyond. It requires schools receiving scholarship grants to submit annual academic progress reports by August 1, including demographic data and certified accuracy statements, and mandates the Department of Education to analyze this data for program evaluation. The bill also codifies existing regulations into law, requiring scholarship organizations to register with the Department of Education, submit quarterly financial data, and notify the Department of Taxation of donations within 5 years. These changes directly affect businesses claiming tax credits, scholarship organizations managing grants, and participating schools.

AB 395: Revises provisions relating to services to persons who are deaf or hard of hearing. (BDR 40-841)

AB 395 requires health facilities and healthcare providers to ensure deaf or hard of hearing patients can access qualified sign language interpreters. It mandates that facilities notify patients of interpreter availability and allow requests for in-person or remote interpreters, with in-person interpreters required unless a patient consents to remote service or specific circumstances make remote interpretation inappropriate. The bill also directs the Department of Health and Human Services to maintain an online list of facilities specializing in services for deaf or hard of hearing individuals. This affects all health facilities and providers receiving federal funding, directly impacting patients seeking medical care who are deaf or hard of hearing.

AB 359: Proposes to exempt sales of certain coins, currency and bullion from sales and use taxes and analogous taxes upon approval by the voters. (BDR 32-147)

AB 359 proposes a voter-approved exemption from Nevada's sales and use taxes for the sale of coins, currency, and bullion (like gold or silver coins) when sold primarily based on their precious metal value - not as money. If approved by voters in the 2026 general election, this exemption would apply to all applicable sales taxes starting January 1, 2027, and expire December 31, 2050. It directly affects sellers and buyers of collectible or investment-grade precious metal items (e.g., bullion dealers, collectors), excluding items sold for use as currency. The exemption requires items to be used as legal tender, security, or commodity, not for their face value as money.

AB 297: Revises provisions relating to Medicaid. (BDR 38-838)

AB 297 (not Medicaid-related, as titled) creates a free postnatal home visitation program for new mothers in Nevada. It requires the state health department to provide at least two registered nurse visits per week for 28 days after birth, with no cost to the mother. The program must be funded using federal grants (like those under 42 U.S.C. § 711) and integrated into Nevada’s existing maternal and child health services. This directly affects new mothers in Nevada who give birth, aiming to improve postpartum care access.

AB 482: Revises provisions relating to Medicaid. (BDR 38-809)

AB 482 expands Nevada Medicaid coverage to include voluntary male sterilization, clinical services related to contraception, and language translation services for contraceptive care. It directly affects Medicaid enrollees seeking family planning services, particularly men needing sterilization and non-English speakers requiring interpreters. Key provisions require the state to cover translation costs at rates comparable to other government entities, ensure no higher copays for covered services, and allow any qualified healthcare provider to offer these services. The bill modifies existing Medicaid rules to broaden access without imposing new costs on local governments.

AB 203: Revises provisions relating to cannabis. (BDR 56-134)

AB 203 revises Nevada's cannabis regulations to improve social equity and streamline business operations. It creates a Social Equity Liaison position within the Cannabis Compliance Board and allows unlicensed businesses operated by people previously impacted by cannabis criminalization to form joint-venture agreements with licensed facilities. The bill exempts joint-venture sales from excise taxes, removes certain licensing requirements for social equity applicants seeking consumption lounges, and modifies labeling rules to no longer require non-functional labels on wholesale cannabis packaging. These changes directly affect cannabis businesses, social equity applicants, and the Cannabis Compliance Board, aiming to reduce regulatory barriers while maintaining oversight.

AB 587: Requires the transfer of certain money from the Account to Stabilize the Operation of the State Government to the State General Fund. (BDR S-1240)

AB 587 transfers $288.7 million from Nevada's Rainy Day Account (the "Account to Stabilize the Operation of the State Government") to the State General Fund for the 2025-2026 fiscal year, and $61.8 million for 2026-2027. This bill directly affects state budget operations by making existing surplus funds available for general spending, rather than reserving them for fiscal emergencies. The funds will be unrestricted, allowing the state to use them for any purpose without specific allocation requirements. The transfer becomes effective July 1, 2025, and does not create new revenue or spending.

AB 127 appropriates $5 million from the State General Fund to the Office for New Americans (within the Governor’s Office) to provide grants to Nevada counties and cities. These grants fund local language access plans required by Nevada law (NRS 244.184 and 268.01925), helping communities provide language services for non-English speakers. Counties and cities can use the funds for implementation costs, with up to $200,000 reserved for administrative expenses. All funds must be spent or reverted to the State General Fund by September 17, 2027, with the bill effective July 1, 2025.

The money must be spent by June 30, 2027, with any unused portion reverting to the state by September 17, 2027.

AB 162: Establishes a statewide database and Internet website for certain criminal records relating to domestic violence. (BDR 14-52)

AB 162 creates a statewide database and public website for individuals with two or more convictions for domestic violence offenses. It requires the Nevada Department of Public Safety to maintain this database within the Central Repository, allowing free public searches by name or other identifiers. The bill prohibits using this information for employment, housing, credit, insurance, or education decisions - similar to existing restrictions on sex offender registry data - and provides a process for individuals to petition for removal of their records. It also grants immunity to officials for database accuracy and disclosure, while requiring the website to include resources for domestic violence victims.
