To amend section 7014 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to advance toward full Federal funding for impact aid, and for other purposes.
HR 1591 amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to increase annual federal funding for impact aid programs that support school districts near military bases, national parks, and other federal properties. It authorizes specific, rising funding levels for four key areas: payments for federal land acquisitions ($90 million in 2024, growing to $150 million by 2029), basic payments to heavily impacted school districts ($1.6 billion in 2024, growing to $2.45 billion by 2029), payments for students with disabilities ($60 million in 2024, growing to $120 million by 2029), and school construction projects ($22.9 million in 2024, growing to $45.4 million by 2029). These appropriations represent incremental steps toward full federal funding for these aid programs, as specified in the bill's text. The bill directly affects school districts located near federal land, providing predictable annual funding increases for their operational and infrastructure needs.
