Vote Yes on this bill if you want hospitals to stop forcing nurses to work beyond scheduled hours except in true emergencies, give nurses rest after very long shifts, and protect patient safety by reducing fatigue.

Organizations that support this bill may include nurse unions, patient safety groups, hospital worker advocates, and labor organizations that want to reduce burnout and protect nurses from being forced into extra shifts.

Vote No on this bill if you want hospitals to keep broader authority to require overtime to handle staffing shortages and maintain flexibility in scheduling, even if nurses may be required to work longer hours.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include hospital associations, health system management groups, and some rural or understaffed hospitals that want more flexibility to cover shifts when staffing is short.
