The American Teacher Act provides grants to State educational agencies to increase teacher salaries and awareness of the teaching profession.

The American Teacher Act aims to provide grants to State educational agencies to support State efforts to increase teacher salaries. It mandates that full-time teachers at qualifying schools earn an annual salary of at least $60,000, adjusted for inflation. The Act also requires a sustainability plan for maintaining these salaries post-grant period. Additionally, it allocates funds for a national campaign to raise awareness about the importance of teachers and to encourage students to consider teaching as a career.
