What this bill does
The AI LABS Act (H.R. 10315) would direct the Secretary of Education to establish a competitive grant program for states to develop artificial intelligence education in elementary and secondary schools. States would apply to the Secretary of Education, and grant funds would be used for two purposes: creating curricula that teach students how to use and understand AI, and providing professional training for teachers to help them understand AI and incorporate it into their teaching. The bill also requires the Secretary to study how states use the grant funds and to report findings and recommendations, within one year of enactment, to the House Committee on Education and Workforce and the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
The bill primarily affects state education agencies, which would be eligible to apply for and administer the grants, as well as public school teachers and students in participating states, who would be the direct recipients of new AI-related curricula and training. The Department of Education would be responsible for running the grant program and conducting the required study and report.
The bill was introduced on September 8, 2026, by Rep. Josh Gottheimer, with Rep. Obernolte as a cosponsor, and has been referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce. As an introduced bill, it would need to be considered and approved by that committee, then by the full House and Senate, before it could become law. No further action has yet occurred.
