Three helpful features of NGPF’s 2025 Financial Education Bill Tracker
1. Just give me the highlights!
Archaic “legalese.” Odd formatting. Subcommittees to reform sub-sub-sections of statutes buried deep in state administrative code. Sometimes it feels like you need to learn a whole new language in order to decipher state legislation! As experienced financial education policy nerds (and proud of it!), our team speaks that language fluently. We analyze the minutiae of each state’s high school financial education bills, then break them down into plain, digestible language.
By summarizing each bill, NGPF’s 2025 Financial Education Bill Tracker buys you time that you can spend… advocating!
2. Find and track bills just in your state
Click any bill on the 2025 Financial Education Bill Tracker to be redirected to its state legislature’s webpage. Most statehouses offer a bill update service for residents so you can be notified as soon as hearings are scheduled, new sponsors are added, or language is amended.
3. Sort by most recent updates
Bills with recent or frequent activity often signal strong support or urgency from legislators. NGPF’s 2025 Financial Education Bill Tracker includes an “Updates” column to help you identify which bills are gaining momentum. Click ‘Sort by Updates’ to organize the bills with most recent changes first.
