What’s happening with Climate Change Education Act?
The Climate Change Education Act, known as H.R. 8406, has been in the House Committee on Energy and Commerce and the Committee on Education and Workforce since April 20, 2026. These committees must take action to move the bill forward, but most legislation fails to receive a committee vote. This lack of committee action is the standard way most bills end their life in Congress.
