What’s happening with Defending Education Transparency and Ending Rogue Regimes Engaging in Nefarious Transactions Act?
The House passed H.R. 1048 on March 30, 2025, but the bill has seen no action in the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions since that date. The Senate must now choose to schedule a vote, though most bills that pass the House fail to move forward in the Senate. This effort faces a high chance of stalling because the Senate often does not prioritize legislation sent over from the House.
