AACN is pleased to see sustained funding for nursing education and research in the proposed spending bill for fiscal year (FY) 2025, a stark contrast to the cuts proposed in the House bill introduced last month. This funding bill counters the cuts proposed by the House by keeping the Nursing Workforce Diversity Program intact and providing $310.472 million, a $5 million increase, to Title VIII Nursing Workforce Development Programs. Furthermore, the Senate maintains the current structure of the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) as well as level funding for NINR at $197.693 million, $10 million of which would support research on identifying and reducing health disparities.
