AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the U.S. Secretary of Education to give competitive grants to colleges and universities so they can hire military veterans as campus security staff. Schools would apply to the Secretary, and schools that receive a grant would have to use the money to hire veterans for campus security. The bill would also ban the use of any federal funds to support Equity Assistance Centers, which are described in federal education regulations, or any similar centers.
