Enacted
This legislative proposal aims to codify Executive Order 14191 , thereby giving it the full force and effect of law. The Executive Order, which focuses on expanding educational freedom and opportunity for families, would become permanent federal statute through this act. A significant provision of the bill includes a rule of construction to clarify its scope. This rule ensures that the codification does not alter existing determinations regarding whether private, religious, or parochial elementary or secondary schools receive federal financial assistance for purposes of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. Furthermore, it specifies that the bill does not affect their status as state actors for determining liability under the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution.
