Explanation:

The Nursing Licensure Compact (NLC) is an agreement between U.S. states that allows nurses with a multistate license to practice in any participating state without needing a new license for temporary assignments. Continuing education requirements are tied to maintaining their home state license, not the compact itself, and the compact does not require reapplying for a new license for practice in other compact states.

Answer:

B. Grants the nurse permission to practice in more than one state
