house 01/31/2025 - 119th Congress
We are introducing the A PLUS Act to empower states with the flexibility to consolidate federal education funds, allowing them to improve student achievement through locally-tailored reforms. By reducing administrative burdens, this legislation aims to focus resources on enhancing educational outcomes, particularly for disadvantaged students, while ensuring transparency and accountability to parents and taxpayers.
