Introduced·5/20/26

The All Students Count Act of 2026 amends the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to require annual state report cards to reflect the same.

The All Students Count Act of 2026 seeks to amend the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to ensure that annual state report cards reflect the same race groups as the decennial census of population. This includes detailed ethnic groups within Asian American and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander communities. The bill highlights the educational disparities among these diverse groups and emphasizes the importance of disaggregating data to better support their educational needs. The changes will take effect 18 months after the enactment of the Act.
