AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would bar any federal funding from going to a local school district that requires students to get a COVID-19 vaccine in order to enroll in its public elementary or secondary schools. The ban would apply to districts that either create or enforce such a vaccine requirement. Key terms such as "local educational agency," "elementary school," and "secondary school" would follow the definitions in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
