Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

This bill, effective June 1, 2027, limits the number of hours hospitals can require registered nurses to work, generally preventing them from working beyond their scheduled or on-call hours, or voluntarily agreed-upon extra hours. It also requires 8 hours of off-duty time after a 12-hour shift, with some exceptions for emergencies or unexpected staffing issues. Hospitals cannot punish nurses for refusing to work beyond these limits and must post notices about these rules.
