Tomorrow at 10:15 a.m., the Committee on Education and Workforce is scheduled to consider five legislative bills. Chaired by Representative Tim Walberg from Michigan, the committee will focus on legislation intended to protect students, empower workers, and reduce bureaucratic complexities.

The bills under review include H.R. 2617, known as the Say No to Indoctrination Act, and H.R. 2616, referred to as the PROTECT Kids Act. Additionally, H.Res. 237 requests the President and directs the Secretary of Education to provide certain documents to the House of Representatives. These documents pertain to downsizing measures at the Department of Education. Two other bills on the agenda are H.R. 2262, titled the Flexibility for Workers Education Act, and H.R. 2270, known as the Empowering Employer Child and Elder Care Solutions Act.

This gathering will take place at the Rayburn House Office Building in room 2175. The proceedings will be open to the press and accessible via a live broadcast on the Committee's YouTube page.
