Pell Grant program, grants for tuition-free community college, tuition assistance for certain institutions, along with additional higher education investments. While the sweeping legislation will be taken up by multiple committees the higher education components
will be primarily amended through input from members on the Education and Labor panel.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
