Assigns a short title and inserts a placeholder heading for marijuana research at 1890 institutions into federal agricultural research law but contains no operative provisions or funding.
Official title: To amend the National Agricultural Research, Extension, and Teaching Policy Act of 1977, to provide for marijuana agricultural research program at 1890 institutions, and for other purposes.
Introduced June 18, 2026 by Troy Carter · Last progress June 18, 2026
Creates an official short title, the "EDUCATE Act of 2026," and inserts a new heading into the National Agricultural Research, Extension, and Teaching Policy Act of 1977 entitled "Marijuana research at 1890 Institutions." The text provided contains only the short title and a placeholder heading; it includes no operative language, definitions, funding, deadlines, or agency instructions and therefore makes no explicit change to existing law as supplied. Because the bill as provided contains only a heading and an insertion marker, it does not create programs, appropriate funds, impose duties, or alter regulatory authority. Its immediate legal effect is limited to naming and a blank codification insertion; any future substantive effect would require follow-up text or implementing legislation or agency action.
