Simplify and improve the process for students to register for and take the SAT exam.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with SAT Streamlining Act?
The SAT Streamlining Act is currently active under S. 3639, which was reported out of committee on February 11, 2026. The Senate must now schedule a floor vote to advance the bill, but the binding constraint is the limited time available for the chamber to consider new legislation. While moving out of committee is a significant milestone that many bills fail to reach, the lack of action since February 11, 2026, shows that securing time for a final vote remains a difficult challenge.
