What it does
The Accounting STEM Pursuit Act would amend the Student Support and Academic Enrichment Grant program to include accounting education and career awareness as part of a well-rounded STEM educational experience. It would specifically promote access to high-quality accounting courses for students in grades K–12, with a focus on increasing participation from groups historically underrepresented in accounting careers. The bill modifies existing provisions of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to formally recognize accounting as a component of STEM-related career readiness initiatives.
