Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
The Student Voter Data Protection Act would restrict what colleges and universities can do with student personal information. Specifically, the bill prohibits postsecondary institutions from selling or sharing a student's personal data, including basic directory information, for purposes related to measuring voter registration or voting rates unless the student first gives explicit written consent. The legislation also creates a broader ban on colleges selling any student personally identifiable information without prior, informed written consent. The bill enforces these restrictions by making institutions that violate these rules ineligible for federal education funding. No specific funding amounts or implementation timeline are included in the bill language.
