HRES 1391: Impeaching Linda M. McMahon, Secretary of Education, for high crimes and misdemeanors.

This resolution seeks to impeach Linda M. McMahon, the Secretary of Education, for three specific articles of misconduct: willfully violating federal laws, making false statements to Congress, and breaching the public trust. The bill alleges that McMahon illegally transferred the operations of six essential offices within the Department of Education to other federal agencies without congressional approval, contrary to the Department of Education Organization Act. It also claims she misled the Senate by promising to spend all congressionally appropriated funds while simultaneously canceling hundreds of grants and freezing funding for various educational programs. Additionally, the resolution accuses her of terminating approximately 2,000 employees, which disrupted the department's ability to manage federal funds and deliver services. If the House votes to adopt this resolution, the articles of impeachment would be sent to the Senate for a trial that could result in her removal from office.

HR 9289: Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act of 2026

The Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act of 2026 eliminates a federal tax credit that allowed parents to deduct contributions to scholarship granting organizations from their income. By removing these specific tax breaks, the bill prevents the use of public tax dollars to support private school vouchers and scholarship programs. This change directly affects families who currently rely on these tax incentives to fund education outside the public school system. The provisions take effect for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2026.

HR 8445: Stop DEI Act

The Stop DEI Act proposes to prohibit federal funding for institutions of higher education. Specifically, it states that colleges and universities would be ineligible for funds from federal education programs. This ineligibility would occur if an institution considers an individual's race, sex, ethnicity, color, or national origin in ways that violate existing civil rights laws. The bill's aim is to prevent federal funds from being used by institutions whose practices related to these characteristics are deemed to be in violation of those laws.

S 4297: Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act

This bill, titled the "Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act," repeals two sections of the Internal Revenue Code. It eliminates Section 25F, which provides a tax credit for contributions made to scholarship granting organizations.

The amendments generally take effect for taxable years ending after December 31, 2026.

HR 2616: Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act

HR 2616, the PROTECT Kids Act, requires public elementary and middle schools receiving federal education funding to obtain parental consent before changing a student's gender markers, pronouns, or preferred name on school forms, or before assigning them to sex-based accommodations like locker rooms or bathrooms. The bill directly affects minor students in elementary school or middle grades (ages typically 5-14). Schools must secure this consent as a condition for maintaining federal funding under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The law focuses on specific administrative changes to student records and facility assignments, not broader educational content or curriculum.
