Student Voter Data Protection Act

This bill would change the federal student privacy law known as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Colleges and other postsecondary schools would lose federal program funding if they share students' personal information, including directory information, to measure student voter registration or voting rates without the student's prior, informed, written consent. The bill would also cut off federal program funding to postsecondary schools that sell students' education records, including directory information, without the student's prior, informed, written consent. Consent would have to follow an existing federal regulation on written consent.
