Dossier Legislative introduced 29-oct-2026
Bill introduced in Congress — not yet passed by either chamber, and not law.

To direct the Secretary of Defense to expand the priority list for the Public Schools on Military Installations Program of the Department of Defense.

Key claim: This House bill would require the Defense Department to add more public schools located on military bases to the waiting list for federal construction and renovation funding.

Abstract

(HR10949 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-10-29): Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.

Why this matters

The Public Schools on Military Installations Program funds construction and renovation of aging K-12 schools serving military-connected students on base, but the priority list has long outpaced available DoD dollars. Expanding the list would acknowledge more eligible schools without itself guaranteeing appropriations, shaping which installations and districts are in line for future federal capital investment.
