Congressional Disapproval of Charter School Grant Funding Rules

This resolution seeks to nullify new rules set by the Department of Education regarding how federal grants are allocated to charter schools. If passed, the specific criteria, priorities, and requirements for programs supporting the creation and expansion of charter schools would be immediately invalidated. This action affects the funding process for these schools, potentially altering the availability and development of alternative educational options in communities.
Key points
Blocking New Regulations: Congress aims to reject the Department of Education's regulations concerning the Charter Schools Program (CSP) grants.
Impact on Education Funding: The change affects the criteria used to determine how new and expanding charter schools receive federal financial support.
Consequence: The rejected rules (published in July 2022) would have no legal effect, potentially changing the requirements for schools seeking development funds.
