H.R. 865 · 116th Congress

Rebuild America’s Schools Act of 2019

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.

Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 116th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

Rebuild America's Schools Act of 2019

This bill provides financial assistance in FY2020-FY2029 for long-term improvements to public school facilities by allocating funds to states for school facility improvements, awarding need-based grants to local education agencies, restoring school infrastructure tax credit bonds, and providing assistance for repair of school foundations affected by pyrrhotite.

The bill specifies allowable uses of grant funds, including making major repairs of public school facilities and making public school facilities accessible to disabled individuals.

The bill requires local education agencies to adopt certain green practices (environmental standards) and use products made in the United States (Buy America).

The Department of Education must establish a clearinghouse to disseminate information to assist schools in initiating, developing, and financing energy efficiency projects, distributed generation projects, and energy retrofitting projects.

The bill increases funding through FY2024 for the Impact Aid Construction program under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
