AI Flaw Reporting and Security Enhancement Act

United States · United States Congress · 18 June 2026

AI Flaw Reporting and Security Enhancement Act This bill establishes a program to facilitate the voluntary reporting and tracking of artificial intelligence (AI) flaws, to be administered by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). In carrying out this program, NIST must seek to convene various stakeholders to establish common definitions for terms related to AI flaws and criteria for the classification of AI flaws (e.g., security-related flaws and safety-related flaws). The group must also support the development of technical standards and guidance related to detecting, managing, and disclosing AI flaws and prioritizing the remediation of such flaws. Further, NIST must develop, or enter into cooperative agreements with institutions of higher education or research institutions to develop, infrastructure for the voluntary reporting, collection, and tracking of AI flaws. This must include a national database of AI flaws or the modification of an existing national database to account for AI flaws. (NIST currently administers a national database of cybersecurity vulnerabilities.) NIST must consider certain topics when developing this infrastructure, including the interoperability of the infrastructure with relevant existing systems, standards, and best practices. Within three years of the bill’s enactment, NIST must report to Congress on the implementation of these provisions. Under the bill, an AI flaw is a set of conditions or behaviors that allow for the violation of certain policies (e.g., safety or security policies) and is not necessarily associated with malicious intent.

READ AI Models Act

United States · United States Congress · 4 December 2025

Resources for Evaluating and Documenting AI Models or the READ AI Models Act This bill requires the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop a customizable template for information to accompany artificial intelligence (AI) models. Specifically, NIST must initiate a pilot program to establish a structured template that may be used to document information about an artificial intelligence model and any associated data, such as the model’s name, the developer, and the cutoff date for the model’s training data. The template must be modular to enable users to adopt and complete various sections to suit their needs and intended audience. NIST must also provide technical guidelines to accompany the template that incorporate consensus-based standards and industry best practices, as appropriate. In developing these materials, NIST must collaborate with and conduct periodic outreach to various stakeholders, including private sector entities, international standards organizations, and institutions of higher education. NIST must publish and solicit public comment on a draft of the template and guidelines. Within 12 months of the start of the pilot program, NIST must publish the finished products and report to Congress with an assessment of the program.

Affordable Loans for Students Act

United States · United States Congress · 10 March 2025

Affordable Loans for Students Act This bill sets the interest rate at 2% for new and existing federal student loans. (Currently, interest rates on federal student loans range from 6.53% to 9.08%, depending on the loan type.) Specifically, the bill directs the Department of Education (ED) to establish and implement procedures to modify the terms of federal student loans held by ED so the applicable rate of interest shall be 2% on the unpaid principal balance of the loan. ED must modify the interest rate without any action from the borrower. Additionally, ED must establish and implement procedures to (1) refinance eligible loans that are not held by ED (e.g., privately held Federal Family Education Loans and Perkins Loans) as consolidation loans, and (2) allow a borrower to opt out of this loan refinancing. The bill outlines the terms and conditions of these refinanced loans, including by prohibiting ED from charging origination fees and by setting the interest rate at 2% on these loans. The bill applies the 2% interest rate to new loans (i.e., federal student loans made beginning on the first July 1 after the bill's enactment) and also applies this rate retroactively to existing loans.

Workforce for AI Trust Act

United States · United States Congress · 18 June 2026

Workforce for AI Trust Act This bill provides for various workforce development and research programs related to artificial intelligence (AI). For example, the bill authorizes the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to support education and workforce development activities to expand careers in the AI workforce. Further, the bill requires NIST to develop a common system for describing and classifying AI-related tasks, knowledge, and skills that can be used to develop job descriptions or competency areas (an AI workforce framework ). NIST must develop guidelines for using the framework and take other steps to support external use (e.g., through outreach and dissemination to AI education programs). Separately, the National Science Foundation (NSF) may make awards through eligible institutions of higher education to support graduate and postdoctoral research fellowships across disciplines (including in social science and humanities) related to trustworthy AI. NSF may also make awards to support institutional workshops to advance the development and training of trustworthy AI systems. NSF must encourage the use of AI to accelerate work across NSF-supported fields, including by supporting (1) training for undergraduate and graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, (2) workshops on the application of trustworthy AI to new uses, and (3) supplements to existing research awards for applying AI to ongoing research. Further, NSF must generally ensure that merit review panels convened to evaluate AI-related proposals incorporate perspectives from diverse research disciplines (e.g., social science, ethics, and linguistics).

American Dream and Promise Act of 2025 This bill provides certain non-U.S. nationals ( aliens under federal law) with a path to receive permanent resident status and contains other immigration-related provisions. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or the Department of Justice (DOJ) shall provide conditional permanent resident status for 10 years to a qualifying individual who entered the United States as a minor and (1) is deportable or inadmissible, (2) has deferred enforced departure (DED) status or temporary protected status (TPS), or (3) is the child of certain classes of nonimmigrants. The bill imposes various qualifying requirements, such as the individual being continuously physically present in the United States since January 1, 2021, passing a background check, and being enrolled in or having completed certain educational programs. DHS shall remove the conditions placed on permanent resident status granted under this bill if the individual applies and meets certain requirements, such as completing certain programs at an educational institution, serving in the military, or being employed. Furthermore, DHS or DOJ shall provide lawful permanent resident status to certain individuals who had TPS, were eligible for TPS, or were eligible for DED status on certain dates. Such individuals must meet certain requirements and apply for such status within three years of this bill's enactment. This bill also repeals a restriction that bars a state from providing higher education benefits to undocumented individuals unless those benefits are available to all U.S. nationals without regard to residency in the state.

Rebuild America’s Health Care Schools Act of 2025

United States · United States Congress · 27 February 2025

Rebuild America’s Health Care Schools Act of 2025 This bill allows hospitals to receive reimbursement under Medicare for certain costs associated with training nursing and allied health students in settings other than the hospital itself.  Currently, hospitals may receive reimbursement under Medicare for the reasonable costs associated with training nursing and allied health students if certain conditions are met; the criteria vary depending on whether the students are enrolled in an educational program that is operated by the hospital or another entity. If the students are part of a program that is operated by another entity, the training must occur at the hospital itself or in areas immediately surrounding the hospital in order to qualify for reimbursement (among other requirements). The bill allows hospitals to receive reimbursement for these costs if the training is conducted at an entity that is related to the hospital (i.e., common ownership or control). The bill requires the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to update regulations to reflect these changes. Additionally, the CMS may not recoup or reduce payments to hospitals with respect to costs that are allowed under the bill and must refund any such recoupments or reductions that occurred during the six-year period prior to the bill's enactment.

College for All Act of 2025

United States · United States Congress · 21 May 2025

College for All Act of 2025 This bill establishes measures to expand access to higher education, including by eliminating tuition and required fees for eligible students, revising the Federal Pell Grant program, and reauthorizing certain programs to assist students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Specifically, the bill provides funding to enable states and tribal colleges and universities, through a federal-state partnership, to eliminate tuition and required fees for (1) all students at community colleges and two-year tribal colleges and universities, and (2) working- and middle-class students at four-year public institutions of higher education and tribal colleges and universities. The bill provides funding to enable private, nonprofit historically Black colleges and universities and minority-serving institutions to eliminate tuition and required fees for eligible students. The bill permanently reauthorizes and otherwise revises the Federal Pell Grant program by providing funding to increase the maximum award for each eligible student, increasing the duration limit for the use of Pell Grants, allowing students to use their awards to cover living and nontuition expenses, and expanding eligibility to Dreamer students (i.e., students who have been granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals status and who entered the United States before the age of 16) and students with other immigration statuses. Further, the bill requires the Department of Education to award grants to eligible states and tribal colleges and universities for improving student outcomes. The bill reauthorizes through FY2035 the Federal TRIO Programs and reauthorizes through FY2029 the Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs.
