What’s happening with 21st Century STEM for Girls and Underrepresented Minorities Act?
The 21st Century STEM for Girls and Underrepresented Minorities Act is stalled in the House Committee on Education and Workforce as of July 2026. The committee members must act to hold a vote for the bill to move forward, but most bills fail to receive a committee vote. This lack of action has continued since the bill was referred to the committee on December 2, 2025.
