H.R. 8369
The No ICE in Schools Act would prohibit schools and educational institutions from sharing student records and personally identifiable information with immigration enforcement agencies unless they receive written permission from parents. Schools that violate this rule would lose federal education funding. The bill applies to all types of student information, including education records and directory information, and requires that parents receive a copy of any information being released and understand the specific reasons for the release. This legislation is intended to protect immigrant students and their families by preventing immigration authorities from accessing school-based information for enforcement purposes.
