Elise Stefanik introduces legislation to end sex-based quotas in higher education accreditation.
Quiver AI Summary
On September 3, 2025, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik introduced the Fairness in Higher Education Accreditation Act, aimed at prohibiting accreditors from imposing racial or sex-based quotas on educational institutions. The legislation aims to prioritize academic freedom and aligns with previous executive orders from former President Trump.
Stefanik stated, "Accreditors should not have the tools to coerce colleges into using racial or sex-based quotas as a condition of accreditation." The bill includes provisions to uphold academic freedom, ban identity-based quotas, and provide legal recourse for universities against accreditors.
The act also seeks to strengthen institutional autonomy and protect religious institutions from conflicting mandates. Senator Jim Banks has introduced a companion bill in the Senate, with Representatives McDowell and Norman as co-sponsors.
