Biotechnology is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world, impacting everything from how we treat diseases to how we grow food. Currently, many high schools lack the expensive equipment and specialized training needed to teach these subjects, which can leave students behind in the global economy. By funding these programs, the bill aims to create a more skilled workforce and ensure that students from all backgrounds—not just those in wealthy districts—have a path into high-tech careers. If this doesn't pass, biotechnology education will likely remain limited to schools that can already afford high-end labs.
