What’s happening with Lifelong Learning Act?
The Lifelong Learning Act is currently tracked under S. 3870, which was referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions on February 11, 2026. The committee members must act next to hold a vote, but the binding constraint is that most bills never receive a committee hearing or vote.
