College Employment Accountability Act

# College Employment Accountability Act (HR 2367) - Summary **What the Bill Would Do:** The College Employment Accountability Act would require colleges and universities to disclose employment outcomes for their graduates. If passed, schools would need to track and publicly report data on how many graduates find jobs, what types of jobs they secure, and salary information by field of study. The goal is to give prospective students and families clearer information about the actual job market value of different degree programs before deciding where to attend and what to study. **Who It Affects:** This bill would primarily impact higher education institutions (colleges and universities), prospective students, and families making education decisions.

It could also affect employers and the labor market more broadly, as better employment data might influence which programs students choose to pursue. **Current Status:** The bill is currently in committee, meaning it has been introduced but has not yet been debated or voted on by the full House of Representatives. It was introduced by Representative Erin Houchin (R-Indiana) in the 119th Congress. At this stage, the proposal remains in the early legislative process with no guaranteed path to becoming law.
