Affordable Loans for Students Act

United States · United States Congress · 10 March 2025

Affordable Loans for Students Act This bill sets the interest rate at 2% for new and existing federal student loans. (Currently, interest rates on federal student loans range from 6.53% to 9.08%, depending on the loan type.) Specifically, the bill directs the Department of Education (ED) to establish and implement procedures to modify the terms of federal student loans held by ED so the applicable rate of interest shall be 2% on the unpaid principal balance of the loan. ED must modify the interest rate without any action from the borrower. Additionally, ED must establish and implement procedures to (1) refinance eligible loans that are not held by ED (e.g., privately held Federal Family Education Loans and Perkins Loans) as consolidation loans, and (2) allow a borrower to opt out of this loan refinancing. The bill outlines the terms and conditions of these refinanced loans, including by prohibiting ED from charging origination fees and by setting the interest rate at 2% on these loans. The bill applies the 2% interest rate to new loans (i.e., federal student loans made beginning on the first July 1 after the bill's enactment) and also applies this rate retroactively to existing loans.

Rebuild America’s Health Care Schools Act of 2025

United States · United States Congress · 27 February 2025

Rebuild America’s Health Care Schools Act of 2025 This bill allows hospitals to receive reimbursement under Medicare for certain costs associated with training nursing and allied health students in settings other than the hospital itself.  Currently, hospitals may receive reimbursement under Medicare for the reasonable costs associated with training nursing and allied health students if certain conditions are met; the criteria vary depending on whether the students are enrolled in an educational program that is operated by the hospital or another entity. If the students are part of a program that is operated by another entity, the training must occur at the hospital itself or in areas immediately surrounding the hospital in order to qualify for reimbursement (among other requirements). The bill allows hospitals to receive reimbursement for these costs if the training is conducted at an entity that is related to the hospital (i.e., common ownership or control). The bill requires the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to update regulations to reflect these changes. Additionally, the CMS may not recoup or reduce payments to hospitals with respect to costs that are allowed under the bill and must refund any such recoupments or reductions that occurred during the six-year period prior to the bill's enactment.

Further, the bill requires the Department of Education to award grants to eligible states and tribal colleges and universities for improving student outcomes.

Nurse Staffing Standards for Hospital Patient Safety and Quality Care Act of 2025

United States · United States Congress · 14 May 2025

Nurse Staffing Standards for Hospital Patient Safety and Quality Care Act of 2025 This bill requires hospitals to implement and submit to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) a staffing plan that complies with specified minimum nurse-to-patient ratios by unit. Hospitals must post a notice regarding nurse-to-patient ratios in each unit and maintain records of actual ratios for each shift in each unit. The bill also requires hospitals to follow certain procedures regarding how ratios are determined, and other staff are prohibited from performing nurse functions unless specifically authorized within a state's scope of practice rules. HHS must adjust Medicare payments to hospitals to cover additional costs attributable to compliance with these ratios. Nurses may object to, or refuse to participate in, an assignment if it would violate minimum ratios or if they are not prepared by education or experience to fulfill the assignment without compromising the safety of a patient or jeopardizing their nurse's license. Hospitals may not (1) take adverse actions against a nurse based on the nurse's reasonable refusal to accept an assignment; or (2) discriminate against individuals for good faith complaints relating to the care, services, or conditions of the hospital or related facilities. HHS may impose civil monetary penalties on hospitals violating the ratio requirements and must publish the names of such hospitals. The bill provides stipends to the nurse workforce loan repayment and scholarship program and expands the nurse retention grant program to include nurse preceptorship and mentorship projects.
