Free Speech On Campus Act

Bill 119 HR 2634, also known as the "First Amendment Rights Education Act," aims to amend the Higher Education Act of 1965. The bill proposes that public institutions of higher education must provide a written statement and educational programming to new students regarding their rights under the First Amendment to the Constitution. This requirement would be a condition for these institutions to participate in programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act.

The purpose of this bill is to ensure that students are informed about their rights to freedom of speech, religion, press, assembly, and petition. By providing this information and educational programming, students will have a better understanding of their rights and how they can exercise them on campus.

Overall, the goal of Bill 119 HR 2634 is to promote and protect the First Amendment rights of students at public institutions of higher education. This legislation seeks to empower students to engage in open and respectful dialogue, express their opinions, and participate in activities that are protected under the First Amendment.
