house 02/25/2025 - 119th Congress
We're working to enhance language education across the U.S. through the World LEAP Act by providing grants to local schools for establishing or improving world and dual language programs. This initiative aims to equip students with essential language skills to thrive in a global economy, while addressing the current shortage of language educators.
