New foreign funding reports for schools
If enacted, public K–12 schools that get federal aid would have to report some foreign money and contracts. A report would be due within 30 days after a school gets over $10,000 from a foreign source, or signs foreign contracts totaling over $10,000. The school would have to name the foreign source and country, list the amount, and share any terms or contract details. The Secretary of Education would receive these reports. The bill would use existing federal definitions to decide which schools and funds are covered.
