About the Federal Education Policy Tracker

Activity at the federal level is creating considerable change, resulting in uncertainty as well as revealing potential areas of opportunity for Illinois. As these changes unfold, it is crucial to consider what actions Illinois might need or want to take. Powered by the independent, bipartisan state education policy nonprofit Advance Illinois, the Illinois Education Watch: Federal Education Policy Tracker presents a two-step approach to supporting the state in continuing to advance and enhance a healthy system of education and care for Illinois children, students, and families. The tracker provides updates on some of the most significant federal actions, and offers elected officials, state agencies, and advocates ideas for how to manage challenges and further strengthen Illinois’ public education system.
