This bill proposes making the paramedic scholarship program in Minnesota permanent by repealing its expiration date (previously set for June 30, 2026). It ensures continued funding for the program by appropriating $3.2 million annually for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 from the general fund to the Office of Higher Education. Of this amount, $3 million will be allocated for up to 600 student scholarships, $100,000 for program promotion and student recruitment, and $100,000 for administration. The bill also requires annual reports on program effectiveness, including details about paramedic training programs, demand for paramedics, and demographic data of scholarship recipients. Finally, it directs the revisor of statutes to codify the paramedic scholarship program into Minnesota law under a new statute number.
