H.R. 2555

Freedom of Association in Higher Education Act of 2026

Education and Workforce Committee · Rep. Erin Houchin (R-IN)

27 August 2026 | Reported by committee (Education and Workforce, as amended, H. Rept. 119-781)

What's next: Floor scheduling (leadership decides if and when it gets a vote)

Summary: The bill would protect college students' right to form and join single-sex social organizations at universities that receive federal student aid. It would prohibit these institutions from punishing students or organizations for limiting membership based on sex, from forcing members to give up these protections, or from imposing recruitment restrictions on single-sex groups unless both the group and school agree to it in writing.
