What’s happening with this effort?

H.R. 1132 remains in the House Committee on Education and Workforce where it has sat since February 6, 2025. The committee members must choose to hold a vote for the bill to advance, but most bills fail to receive this step and expire in committee. This proposal follows a similar bill that expired in July 2024, reflecting the standard outcome for the vast majority of legislation.
