Protecting Hunting Heritage and Education Act
This bill clarifies that federal education funds can support school programs teaching archery, hunting, or other shooting sports as part of educational instruction or enrichment activities. It directly affects schools receiving federal education funding under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act by modifying a prior restriction. The key change adds an explicit exception to the prohibition, allowing funds to cover these specific educational activities when otherwise permissible under school programs. The amendment ensures schools can offer such instruction without violating existing funding rules.
