H.R. 4260 restricts the Department of Education from making significant changes to how it administers the Impact Aid program, which provides federal funding to school districts affected by federal activities such as military bases or Native American reservations. The bill essentially freezes the program's administration to how it operated on January 1, 2025, unless changes are required by federal law or court order. The Secretary of Education must certify compliance with this restriction to Congress within 30 days of the bill's enactment and then annually thereafter. This legislation primarily affects school districts that receive Impact Aid funding and the Department of Education's management of the program, though no new funding is authorized or modified by the bill itself.
