AI Summary

The bill authorizes the Secretary of Education to provide emergency impact aid to state educational agencies, which will then make payments to eligible LEAs and BIA-funded schools to cover the additional costs of educating these immigrant students.

The bill also includes provisions to ensure non-discrimination and proper use of the funds.
