The National Education Association’s Legislative Program encapsulates our priorities for advocating in Congress for federal laws that support public K-12 schools and postsecondary institutions, student learning, and educators.

The NEA legislative program is set every year by our members at the Representative Assembly, the primary legislative and policymaking body of NEA. Our members propose, amend, and ultimately adopt every bullet point, setting our legislative priorities for the year.
