This bill proposes to amend the General Education Provisions Act to prohibit federal education funds from being made available to any educational agency or institution that releases education records or other student information for purposes of immigration enforcement. This measure aims to protect student privacy and prevent schools from becoming conduits for immigration enforcement activities. The prohibition covers all student information, including personally identifiable information or directory information . An exception is provided only if there is explicit written consent from the student's parents, which must specify the records, the reasons for release, and the recipient. Parents must also receive a copy of the records or information to be released, ensuring transparency and parental oversight before any data is shared with immigration authorities.
