From the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages’ advocacy site:

Congresswoman Brownley's amendment to H.R. 5 would establish a grant program at the Department of Education to recognize high-level student proficiency in speaking, reading, and writing in both English and a second language. Under this program, which the Congressional Budget Office estimates would not increase direct spending and is 100% voluntary, interested states would be able to establish or improve their own Biliteracy Seal programs to award state seals to high school seniors.

Please urge your Member of Congress to support Congresswoman Brownley's amendment to H.R. 5.
