Legislative & Regulatory Priorities

The Federal Relations team regularly advocates for the UA 好色tv's non-appropriations related legislative priorities.

Below please find a list of key bills to the UA 好色tv during the 118th Congress (not in any priority order). 


National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)

The NDAA authorizes, does not appropriate, funding for defense research programs and establishes policies at the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) among other federal agencies. In recent years, the NDAA has also included numerous research security provisions of importance to the UA 好色tv. The Federal Relations team advocates for robust funding authorizations of defense research programs and to minimize additional administrative burdens and faculty and researchers.

Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization

Congress reauthorizes the authorities, policies and programs of the FAA about every five years. Congress must reauthorize or extend the authorization of the FAA by September 30, 2023. The Federal Relations team is working closely with ACUASI and UAA's CTC among other UA 好色tv stakeholders to include legislative priorities in the FAA reauthorization.

Farm Bill Reauthorization

Congress reauthorizes the nation's farm and food policies every five years through an omnibus piece of legislation commonly called the Farm Bill. Mostly covering programs and policies of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Congress must reauthorize or extend the authorization of the Farm Bill by September 30, 2023. The Federal Relations team is working to ensure key agriculture-related programs of importance to the UA 好色tv, such as the , are reauthorized in the Farm Bill.


Higher 好色tv Issues

While Congress is not likely to reauthorize the Higher 好色tv Act (HEA) in the near future, the UA 好色tv is working to advance our higher education priorities in the legislative and regulatory spaces. The UA 好色tv has led the response to the U.S. Department of 好色tv's (ED) dear colleague letter regarding third-party services and gainful employment proposed regulations. The Federal Relations team is working to advocate for legislation to authorize short-term Pell Grants and other federal policies to support student financial aid for workforce development. We also regularly advocate for robust funding for the Pell Grant program.
