Senate panel unanimously backs increase to student indemnification threshold
Summary
The Nevada Senate Committee on Education voted unanimously to give Assembly Bill 164 a do-pass recommendation; the bill raises the account balance threshold that exempts postsecondary institutions from certain quarterly fees, with no amendments proposed.
Sen. Angie Taylor, chair of the Senate Committee on Education, called a work session to order in Carson City and presented Assembly Bill 164, saying the measure increases the account balance amount for student indemnification above which postsecondary institutions licensed by the Commission on Postsecondary Education are not required to pay certain quarterly fees.
Jen Sturm Gainor, the committee policy analyst, summarized the bill for members and noted there were no proposed amendments at the work session.
The committee voted unanimously to recommend the bill. "All those in favor, please indicate so by saying aye. Aye. Opposition? The motion carries that the record show it is unanimous," Taylor said after the vote.
The bill is sponsored by Assemblymember O'Neil and was previously heard on April 25, according to the policy analyst's summary. The work session record does not specify the new dollar threshold in the bill text discussed at the session.
The committee assigned the floor statement related to the bill for the sponsor to a senator for the Senate floor. No further debate or amendments were recorded during the work session.
Votes at the committee: the motion to do pass Assembly Bill 164 carried unanimously.
