Investivoq AI Summary

Harris says PARITY Act is gaining support: Congressman Mark Harris said his PARITY Act is drawing backing from Consumer Action for a Strong Economy and 12 other organizations. The groups sent a letter to House and Senate leaders urging passage of the bill, which would repeal the Higher Education Act’s 90/10 rule.

Bill would change a federal education requirement: Harris said the rule “unfairly singles out career and vocational schools,” while the coalition said it wants “high, consistent performance standards” and more freedom for students to choose among education options. The statement also notes Senate companion legislation from Sen. Jim Banks.
