SB 507: Revises provisions relating to governmental administration. (BDR 18-1252)

SB 507 revises Nevada's administrative structure for professional licensing boards and transportation regulations. It allows the Office of Nevada Boards, Commissions and Councils to charge fees to cover its costs when providing services to licensing boards (like those for architects or cosmetologists), with collected funds deposited into a new dedicated account. The bill also removes the Commission on Postsecondary Education from the Office's oversight and updates taxi/transportation company rules to clarify fee collection and allow taxi companies to partner with ride-hailing apps under certain conditions. These changes directly affect licensing boards, state agencies managing professional licenses, and taxi/ride-hailing businesses. The bill focuses on administrative clarity and funding mechanisms rather than new substantive regulations.

SB 318: Revises provisions relating to charter schools. (BDR 34-89)

SB 318 eliminates charter schools' ability to contract with educational management organizations (EMOs) for operational services, effective upon the bill's enactment, with only limited exceptions for one-time renewals. It also requires charter schools to provide sponsors (like school districts) with written notice, competitive bidding documentation, and prevailing wage compliance records for construction or renovation projects exceeding $100,000. The bill directly affects charter schools and their sponsors by changing operational contracts and project oversight requirements. These changes revise existing Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 388A.030, 388A.223, and related provisions governing charter school management and construction.

AB 508: Revises various provisions relating to state financial administration. (BDR 31-930)

AB 508 revises Nevada's state financial administration rules, primarily affecting the State Education Fund and public schools. It requires the Economic Forum to estimate revenue specifically needed for the Education Fund (beyond general revenue), changes how budget reserves for education are calculated (removing enrollment growth as a factor), and adjusts payment deadlines for gifted student program funding (moving the due date from September 25 to September 1). The bill also modifies cannabis tax revenue distribution by ending the use of wholesale cannabis tax funds to cover the Cannabis Compliance Board's costs, while maintaining a $5 million appropriation to the Board for its regulatory work. These changes directly impact state budget planning, school funding allocations, and cannabis regulatory financing.

AB 216: Revises provisions relating to domestic violence. (BDR 14-181)

AB 216 requires peace officers investigating domestic violence to conduct a "lethality assessment" when they have probable cause to believe the suspect is a spouse, ex-spouse, dating partner, or co-parent. The assessment uses an 8-question form (e.g., about weapon use, threats, choking, gun access) to evaluate immediate danger. Officers must submit results to the Department of Public Safety and include them in written reports. Courts may consider these results when reviewing custody cases. The bill directly affects domestic violence victims, law enforcement officers, and judicial proceedings involving custody.

AB 272: Revises provisions relating to forensic medical examinations. (BDR 16-596)

AB 272 shifts responsibility for covering forensic medical exam costs from counties to Nevada's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). It requires hospitals to provide these exams for victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, strangulation, or human trafficking without charging the victim directly, and establishes a process for facilities to seek reimbursement from HHS within 60 days. The bill repeals prior laws mandating county payment for such exams and expands coverage to include strangulation and human trafficking cases. Key provisions include documentation requirements for reimbursement applications and annual review of reimbursement amounts by HHS. The law ensures victims cannot be billed for these exams, regardless of whether a law enforcement report was filed.

AB 67: Establishes the Nevada Baby Bonds Program. (BDR 18-477)

AB 67 establishes Nevada's Baby Bonds Program, which credits $3,200 to a trust fund for infants born in Nevada on or after January 1, 2026, whose births were covered by Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Eligible individuals must be 18-30 years old, reside in Nevada for 12 months prior to claiming funds, complete a state-approved financial literacy course, and use the money for qualifying purposes like education or housing. The funds cannot count toward eligibility for state benefits like Medicaid or student aid, and unclaimed funds may be redistributed via lottery if insufficient for all eligible recipients. This program directly affects low-income newborns in Nevada, aiming to build early financial assets through state-funded trust accounts.

The bill also requires the state to seek federal approval to implement these rate changes. This directly affects behavioral health transport providers who serve Medicaid patients across Nevada, particularly in rural communities.
