Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

Keeps other civil rights protections

If enacted, this bill would not cut back rights under other civil rights laws. Title VI, Title IX, the Rehabilitation Act, and the Americans with Disabilities Act would still apply. Duties in this bill would be in addition to those laws.

New campus anti-harassment rules and reporting

If enacted, Title IV colleges would need a clear anti-harassment policy. It would ban harassment by students, faculty, and staff on campus, in dorms, at events, and online (email, networks, and messaging). It would cover harassment based on race, color, national origin, sex (including sexual orientation and gender identity), pregnancy and related conditions, disability, religion, and sex characteristics. The policy would explain quick steps, possible sanctions, counseling or other services, and how both accuser and accused get notice of outcomes. Schools would name an office or person to receive and track reports. The required report would describe every pattern of harassment and what the school did. The bill would also define electronic messaging and mobile services to guide reporting.

Grants to prevent harassment at colleges

If enacted, the Education Department would offer competitive grants to colleges and consortia. Money could fund harassment prevention, counseling or redress services, and training for students, faculty, and staff. Grants could last up to 3 years, with one renewal up to 2 years, and would favor places with the greatest need and potential benefit. Congress would be authorized to provide $50 million each year from FY2026 through FY2031. Grantees would report results within 6 months after a grant ends, and the Department would share best practices each year.
