Rebuild America’s Schools Act of 2026

What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill provides money and support to fix and improve public school buildings across the country. It creates a grant program that gives funds to local school districts based on need, and the money can be used for things like major repairs, improving air quality, and making schools accessible to people with disabilities. Schools that build or renovate with these funds must follow certain rules, including using building codes that resist hazards, meeting water-saving and environmental standards, and using American-made materials. The bill also brings back a type of tax credit bond for school construction, creates a new Office of School Infrastructure and Sustainability within the Department of Education, extends a program that helps fund school construction in certain communities, and sets up a separate grant program to help schools fix foundations damaged by a specific mineral that causes them to crumble.
