What’s happening with Freedom of Association in Higher Education Act of 2025?

As of June 24, 2026, the House Committee on Education and the Workforce voted to report H.R. 2555 to the full House of Representatives. The bill now requires a vote by the full House to move forward, though most legislation fails to advance past the committee stage. This effort remains in a difficult position because the vast majority of bills never receive a committee vote or reach the floor for final approval.
