Creates a grant program for civic education and service learning in schools.
The problem
Many schools lack funding and programs to teach students about government, citizenship, and community service. Students need more opportunities to engage civically.
The proposal
The bill directs the Education Secretary to establish a grant program that funds civic education and service learning initiatives in schools across the country.
The impact
Students, teachers, and schools receive funding for civic programs. Communities benefit from increased student service projects. Schools must apply and meet program requirements.
Students learn how government works and their role as citizens. This helps prepare them to vote and participate in democracy. Informed citizens make better decisions for their communities.
Service learning projects help students help their communities. Students gain work experience while addressing local needs like food banks or environmental cleanup.
Grant funding helps schools pay for new programs without cutting other budgets. Teachers get resources to teach civics effectively.
Students build teamwork, leadership, and problem-solving skills through service projects. These skills help them succeed in college and careers.
The program costs taxpayers money. During budget constraints, this funding might be cut or reduced elsewhere.
Wealthy districts may write better grant applications and receive more funding. Schools in poor areas may struggle to access grants.
Schools need time to develop programs and train teachers. Some schools may lack capacity to start new initiatives quickly.
The bill provides limited details about what grants fund or how schools qualify. Rules set later by the Education Secretary could be unclear or restrictive.

Money from people who work there, not from the company. Not tied to this bill.
Itemized individual contributions via FEC, grouped by the employer each contributor self-reported. Companies and unions cannot contribute to federal candidates from their treasuries, so these totals are money from people who work at an employer — never from the organization itself. They are campaign contributions covering a full election cycle and are not connected to this bill.
