Digital Literacy and Equity Act of 2026

This bill would create a federal Digital Literacy and Equity Commission made up of leaders from agencies such as the Department of Education, the Federal Communications Commission, and the Department of Health and Human Services, plus appointed members. The Commission would study digital literacy and information literacy in the United States, including in low-income and disadvantaged areas, and look at programs in other countries. It would have to hold public meetings at least once every 4 months. Within 2 years after members are appointed, it would send Congress a report with its findings, recommendations, and a plan for agencies to coordinate digital literacy services.
