The Hill reported that a bill aiming to clarify that homeschoolers are eligible for student aid has passed unanimously in both the House and the Senate Education Committee.

The bill focuses on a simple clarification in the header of existing law to ensure homeschoolers are not excluded from student aid programs.

The unanimous support in both committees indicates bipartisan agreement on the issue.

The legislation now awaits further action by the full Senate to become law.
