HR 6621 requires federal agencies to study how artificial intelligence is changing jobs, then funds education and retraining programs based on those findings. The Department of Education would run a grant program for schools and colleges to expand tech and computer science education from kindergarten through college. The Department of Labor would run a separate grant program to help currently employed and recently displaced workers in AI-affected industries learn new skills.
K-12 students in low-income, rural, and minority communities who have less access to technology education are a primary focus, along with workers in industries such as manufacturing and service sectors where AI is growing fast. Teachers, community colleges, technical schools, tribal colleges, and minority-serving institutions would be eligible to apply for grant funding.
The bill responds to concerns that AI is displacing workers and creating uneven access to the skills needed in a changing economy. Without action, the reports and grant programs it proposes would not exist, leaving gaps in both data and workforce preparation.
