NCC Reiterates FY 2025 Funding Requests

AONL and the 63 other members of the Nursing Community Coalition urged Congressional leadership and the House and Senate Appropriations Committees to include at least $310.472 million for Title VIII Nursing Workforce Development programs and at least $197.693 million for the National Institute of Nursing Research in fiscal year 2025. The requested funding corresponds with the amounts outlined in the bipartisan Senate Appropriations-passed bill. The letter requests Congress to avoid a long-term continuing resolution and provide “bold investments in these vital programs.” The deadline to pass a bill is March 14. (NCC letter, 2/14/25)
