Protecting Students on Campus Act of 2025 This bill requires the Department of Education (ED) and institutions of higher education (IHEs) participating in federal student aid programs to distribute information on how to report alleged violations of civil rights under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Additionally, the IHE must annually post the materials from OCR's public awareness campaign. The information must be posted in high-traffic public places on campus (e.g., student centers) and high-traffic websites (e.g., the website for student services).  OCR must give monthly congressional briefings on (1) the number of complaints filed with OCR, (2) how OCR plans to address those complaints and the investigations opened in response to those complaints, and (3) how long those complaints remain open. The bill also requires annual reporting by IHEs on discrimination complaints. Further, the bill directs ED's Office of Inspector General to audit and study discrimination complaints.

Keeping All Students Safe Act

United States · United States Congress · 11 December 2025

Keeping All Students Safe Act This bill prohibits the use of seclusion and limits the use of physical restraint in schools and Head Start programs that receive federal funding. Specifically, the bill prohibits the use of seclusion , which is the involuntary confinement of a student alone in a room or area from which the student is physically prevented from leaving. The term does not include a time out, which may involve separating the student from others in a non-locked setting. The bill prohibits the use of mechanical or chemical restraints or physical restraints that restrict breathing or are life threatening. The bill outlines the requirements for the use of physical restraint, including that the student's behavior must pose an imminent danger of serious physical injury to the student or other individual. Each state must ensure that a sufficient number of program personnel are trained and certified by a state-approved crisis intervention training program. Additionally, each program must establish procedures to follow after an incident involving physical restraint. Further, the bill establishes enforcement provisions, including a private right of action for a student who has been subjected to unlawful seclusion or restraint. The Department of Education and the Department of Health and Human Services must withhold payments from a program for unlawful seclusion or restraint. Finally, the bill requires each state educational agency (SEA) to establish, implement, and enforce policies and procedures required by the bill. It also creates a grant program to assist SEAs with these activities.

Childhood Diabetes Reduction Act of 2025

United States · United States Congress · 25 November 2025

Childhood Diabetes Reduction Act of 2025 This bill requires health warnings on labels and in advertisements for food and beverages that are sweetened, processed, or contain a high level of certain nutrients, and it prohibits specifically advertising such products to children. It also expands research and outreach on proper nutrition. The bill requires various Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warnings on labels for (1) sugar-sweetened beverages, (2) food and beverages with non-sugar sweeteners, (3) ultra-processed food and beverages (as defined by the FDA based on recommendations from the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine), and (4) food and beverages with certain nutrients (e.g., sugar, saturated fat, sodium) at levels that increase health risks. These warnings must contain specified information regarding the risks of developing certain health conditions (e.g., diabetes); warnings for sugar-sweetened beverages and for non-sugar sweetened food and beverages must specifically say that these products are not recommended for children.  Additionally, the bill prohibits marketing or advertising these products to children under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, which is primarily enforced by the FDA. Further, marketing or advertising these products to children, or without the required warnings, is considered an unfair or deceptive trade practice that is subject to action by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The bill specifically restores the FTC's statutory authority to regulate advertising targeting children (this authority was removed in 1980). Finally, the bill expands research on nutrition science and requires a public education campaign about nutrition and the new warning labels.
