Nurse Programs

I am currently attending Mount San Jacinto College and attended a workshop for the nursing profession. I heard that Governor Schwarzenegger has passed a law requiring that all schools have the same requirements for the nursing program. Does anyone know if this is true or how I know? In college, I attend the chemistry is not needed, and now political science is a requirement for members of their grade. But at the same time, no other universities that I know of in Southern California have passed, still need chemistry. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
