Create a matched-savings scholarship program for students

Susie Lee introduced the bipartisan Earn to Learn Act, which would create a matched-savings program to help low-income students, including adult learners, pay for tuition, books, fees, and other education-related expenses. Under the described model, eligible students save $500, matched at an 8-to-1 rate through public and private support, for up to $4,500 in flexible scholarship funding. The bill’s demonstration program is estimated to provide 250,000 scholarships over five years, aiming to reduce financial barriers to postsecondary education and reliance on student loans.

Context: The program is proposed legislation, not described as enacted. The passage does not specify detailed eligibility rules for qualifying students.
