Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

School and court officers gain protections

Beginning July 1, 2026, more jobs count as “police officer” under state law. Added roles include school police officers; juvenile probation officers; bailiffs or deputy marshals of district, municipal, or justice courts who carry a weapon and make arrests; city or town marshals and their deputies; and any category I, II, or III peace officer not already covered. These officers get workers’ comp coverage for police, do not have to serve on juries, and can get temporary disability pay for police. Their surviving spouses or children can also qualify for certain group life or medical insurance benefits.

State pays physicals for some officers

Beginning July 1, 2025, the state pays for annual physicals for the Chief Parole and Probation Officer and for police officers of the Capitol Police Division. The law sets aside $3,235 for FY 2025–2026 and $8,129 for FY 2026–2027. Money left at year end cannot be committed after June 30. FY 2025–2026 funds cannot be spent after September 18, 2026, and FY 2026–2027 funds cannot be spent after September 17, 2027. Any leftover money returns to the State General Fund by those dates.

Local expense rule waived for this law

Starting July 1, 2026, a state rule (NRS 354.599) does not apply to extra local government costs caused by this law. Local governments handle those added costs outside that rule. This change does not itself charge or pay money to households.
