Expanding Cybersecurity Workforce Act of 2025

This bill would require the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to create, within 180 days, a program within its Cybersecurity Education and Training Assistance Program to promote the cybersecurity field to listed groups, including people age 40 or older, racial and ethnic minorities, people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, women, veterans, formerly incarcerated people, and graduates of nontraditional education paths. CISA would conduct outreach to educators, unions, chambers of commerce, workforce offices, businesses, community colleges, and parents of K-12 students, and would tailor the program to each region and sector. CISA would report to Congress each year on the program. The bill authorizes $20 million per year for fiscal years 2026 through 2031.
