What this bill does
AI plain-language summaryThis bill aims to help students go to college without taking on debt. It requires the Department of Education to give grants to states so they can partner with the federal government to cover the costs that students at public colleges still owe after financial aid. It also provides grants to historically Black colleges and universities and other minority-serving schools to cover students' remaining financial needs. In addition, the bill would allow certain undocumented students who came to the United States before age 16 and have been granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals status to receive federal financial aid.
