A critical focus for the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations is moving its 12 funding bills through the committee before recess—including the “Labor-H” bill, which funds many programs of interest to AACTE members.

With the national party conventions just around the corner, Congress is scrambling to finish up necessary work before departing Washington until the fall. A critical focus for the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations is moving its 12 funding bills through the committee before recess—including the “Labor-H” bill, which funds many programs of interest to AACTE members. This month’s webinars will discuss the fate of these bills and other priorities that unfolded in the final days before the congressional recess.

This sample Federal Update webinar represents an AACTE member benefit offered each month the U.S. Congress is in session, sharing the latest actions unfolding in Washington, DC affecting educator preparation and its partners. Topics covered include (but are not limited to) legislative and funding actions by the U.S. Congress and activities by the federal government and the Administration, as well as advocacy actions that participants can undertake. Designed to keep AACTE members up to date and engaging in advocacy, these webinars are offered on two different days of the week and at different times of the day, and should you miss it, a recording is posted on the federal page of the AACTE Advocacy Center.

 

Available exclusively to AACTE members, visit AACTE’s website to find out when the next Federal Update webinar is scheduled to take place.
