senate 01/16/2025 - 119th Congress

We are working to pass the PRECEPT Nurses Act, which aims to support and encourage nurse preceptors by providing a $2,000 tax credit for those who dedicate at least 200 hours a year to mentoring nursing students or newly hired nurses in underserved areas. This initiative seeks to increase the availability of experienced mentors in healthcare settings, ultimately enhancing the education and practical training of future nurses.

A tax credit for preceptors? Better than nothing, but will it really solve the nursing shortage?

Tax credits are great, but let's focus on reducing regulations that strangle our healthcare system.

Another tax break masquerading as a solution—how about letting the free market handle it?

It's about time we reward the real heroes in healthcare—nurse preceptors.

$2,000 credit? Fine, but let's not kid ourselves—our healthcare system needs a bigger overhaul.
