HB 1106 allocates $2 million from North Dakota's general fund to the Department of Transportation for grants supporting nonfixed route public transit services. These grants directly assist public transportation providers (such as rural or on-demand transit systems) during the 2025-2027 biennium. The bill creates a dedicated funding stream for nonfixed route transit programs without altering existing service requirements or eligibility rules.

SB 2103 would have allowed North Dakota taxpayers to deduct Segal AmeriCorps education awards from their state individual income tax. This deduction would directly affect residents who received Segal AmeriCorps education awards, reducing their taxable income. The bill proposed adding this specific tax provision to the North Dakota Century Code but was withdrawn on January 7, 2025, before moving forward, meaning it never became law.
HB 1506 would have exempted enrolled members of federally recognized North Dakota tribes from the state's motor vehicle excise tax when purchasing a vehicle within the state, but only if their primary residence is on a reservation or in an Indian service area. The bill specifically required that the vehicle be acquired within North Dakota and that the tribal member reside on tribal land to qualify for the exemption. It was scheduled to take effect for tax events after June 30, 2025. The bill was introduced in January 2025 but was withdrawn from consideration on January 27, 2025, and is not currently law.

SB 2013 provides $9.87 million in funding for the North Dakota commissioner of university and school lands to cover salaries, operations, and contingencies during the 2025-2027 biennium. It also allocates $617.3 million from permanent funds to distribute to specific state institutions, including North Dakota State University, the University of North Dakota, schools for the deaf and blind, correctional facilities, and state colleges. The bill specifies exact amounts for each recipient, such as $584.7 million for common schools and $8.8 million for North Dakota State University. This is a procedural budget bill focused solely on funding allocations, with no new policy changes.
SB 2192 would provide $240,000 in state funds to reimburse community health and social service providers for costs associated with meeting state accreditation requirements. It directly affects community-based organizations that need accreditation to operate, such as clinics, shelters, or support programs. The bill authorizes the Department of Health and Human Services to distribute grants covering these accreditation expenses for the 2025-2027 biennium. This is a funding measure, not a policy change to accreditation standards themselves.
