Data Science and Literacy Act of 2026
This bill establishes a grant program for data literacy education and requires additional reporting regarding secondary school teachers.

Additionally, the bill requires the National Center for Education Statistics to collect and report information on the number of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) teachers in secondary schools in each state.
