Public Department of Education campus safety website
Requires the Department of Education to build and maintain a searchable public website showing Title IX coordinator contacts, pending and resolved federal investigations, enforcement letters, resolution agreements, and instructions for filing complaints — all in one accessible place. Requires every federally funded college and university to designate trained, confidential specialists to support survivors of sexual and interpersonal violence. Specialists must inform survivors of their rights and reporting options, arrange accommodations, and keep communications confidential to the extent permitted by state law. Strengthens what colleges must report and disclose about campus crime. Adds detailed sexual assault outcome statistics, multilingual online posting of safety information, standardized crime definitions, privacy protections for complainants, and required consultation with victim advocacy groups when designing prevention programs.
- Population Scope High Directly affects all students, faculty, and staff at federally funded colleges and universities — tens of millions of people — plus any member of the public seeking campus safety or enforcement information.
- Budgetary Magnitude Low No dollar amount is authorized or appropriated; implementation costs fall to Department of Education and institutions as unfunded or existing-appropriation obligations.
- Legal / Regulatory Depth High Creates multiple new statutory mandates — a permanent public enforcement transparency website, binding specialist designation requirements at every federally funded institution, and expanded Clery Act reporting duties — each imposing substantive obligations with binding legal effect across the regulated population.
- Degree of Discretion Granted Medium Core obligations are framed as 'shall,' but Department of Education retains meaningful discretion in website design, designation of eligible specialist employee categories, and development of training materials.
- Implementation & Enforcement Burden High Requires institutions to stand up new confidential specialist infrastructure, overhaul annual reporting systems with detailed disciplinary-outcome pipelines, and comply with multilingual publication standards — a sustained affirmative compliance obligation across thousands of campuses.
- Temporal Commitment High Amends permanent federal statutes with no expiry, sunset, or reauthorization trigger, binding institutions and Department of Education indefinitely unless Congress acts to repeal.

Expand campus violence grants to cover sexual harassment
Broadens a federal campus violent crime grant program to explicitly include sexual harassment as a covered offense, alongside sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking, expanding which activities and institutions qualify for grant funding.
- Population Scope Medium Directly affects institutions applying for or receiving campus violence prevention grants and the students and employees on those campuses who experience sexual harassment — a meaningful but bounded subset of the higher-education population.
- Budgetary Magnitude Low Expands covered offense categories within an existing grant program without authorizing or appropriating additional funds, leaving total funding levels unchanged.
- Legal / Regulatory Depth Medium Inserts 'sexual harassment' into grant eligibility and allowable-use provisions of 34 U.S.C. § 20125, a procedural expansion of program scope rather than a new substantive mandate or enforceable prohibition across the regulated population.
- Degree of Discretion Granted Medium Preserves the administering agency's existing discretion over grant awards while expanding the offense categories eligible for funding, neither narrowing nor significantly broadening agency authority.
- Implementation & Enforcement Burden Low Adds sexual harassment to grant program definitions without creating new enforcement mechanisms or compliance requirements beyond those already governing the existing campus violence grant program.
- Temporal Commitment High Amends a permanent federal statute with no expiry or reauthorization trigger, so the expanded grant scope persists indefinitely unless Congress acts to reverse it.
