Prohibiting Federal Funds for Universities Supporting Confucius Institutes

This act aims to prohibit federal funding for higher education institutions that support or host Confucius Institutes. This means universities wishing to receive U.S. government funds will need to cease their association with these Institutes. It will impact the availability of Chinese government-funded cultural and language programs on campuses.
Key points
Higher education institutions that fund or have Confucius Institutes will lose access to federal funds.
Confucius Institutes are educational and cultural programs funded by the Chinese government.
The Secretary of Education will conduct a study on the number of universities involved with Confucius Institutes over the past 10 years.
