Protect National Service Act

HR 2933, the Protect National Service Act, prevents federal funds from being used to eliminate the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), the federal agency that administers AmeriCorps and Senior Corps programs. The bill prohibits using funds from the American Relief Act (2025) or other appropriations to dismantle CNCS’s status as a government corporation, requiring annual certifications from CNCS leadership to Congress. It maintains current program structures and obligations, including AmeriCorps participants’ benefits, without creating new services or altering existing funding. The measure focuses on preserving the legal framework for national service programs that have served over 900,000 Americans across all states and territories.
