State Rep. Stephenie Scialabba, R-12th, introduced two bills that would affect institutions of higher education.

House Bill 2040 would require greater transparency on how tax dollars are used abroad. Institutions would be required to create public reports a year in advance about the cost of these trips, the source of the funding, the purpose, and the benefit derived for Pennsylvanians.

House Bill 2041 would prohibit an institution from requiring the completion of Critical Race Theory or Diversity, Equity and Inclusion training or coursework in order to graduate, receive a degree or receive credit hours.
