What’s happening with American Apprenticeship Act?
The American Apprenticeship Act remains stalled in the House Committee on Education and Workforce as of March 2, 2025, and in the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions as of February 10, 2025. Committee members must take action to move these bills forward, but the binding constraint is that most legislation never receives a committee vote. This lack of action is the standard outcome for the vast majority of bills introduced in Congress.
