                 TITLE __--EDUCATION TO SECURE TOMORROW

     SEC. __. SHORT TITLE.

       This title may be cited as the ``Trust in Education to 
     Secure Tomorrow (TEST) for America's Future''.

     SEC. __. DECLARATION OF PURPOSE AND POLICY; FINDINGS.

       (a) Declaration of Purpose and Policy.--Congress declares 
     the following:
       (1) The security of the Nation requires the fullest 
     development of the mental resources and technical skills of 
     its young men and women. The present national security 
     emergency demands that additional and more adequate 
     educational opportunities be made available. The defense of 
     this Nation depends upon the mastery of modern techniques 
     developed from complex scientific principles. It depends as 
     well upon the discovery and development of new principles, 
     new techniques, and new knowledge.
       (2) We must increase our efforts to identify and educate 
     more of the talent of our Nation. This requires programs that 
     will correct as rapidly as possible the existing imbalances 
     in our educational system and will give assurance that no 
     student of ability will be denied an opportunity for higher 
     education because of financial need.
       (3) Congress reaffirms the principle and declares that the 
     States and local communities have and must retain control 
     over and primary responsibility for public education. The 
     national interest requires, however, that the Federal 
     Government give assistance to education for programs which 
     are important to our defense.
       (4) To meet the present emergency requires additional 
     effort at all levels of government. It is therefore the 
     purpose of this division to provide substantial assistance in 
     various forms to individuals, and to States and their 
     subdivisions, in order to insure trained manpower of 
     sufficient quality and quantity to meet the national defense 
     needs of the United States.
       (b) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
       (1) In fiscal year 2002, the No Child Left Behind Act of 
     2001 (Public Law 107-110) was funded at $22,195,000,000. The 
     Budget of the United States Government for Fiscal Year 2003, 
     as submitted to Congress, proposes to fund the No Child Left 
     Behind Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-110) at $22,105,000,000.
       (2) The size of the maximum Federal Pell Grant is 
     authorized to be $5,800, but because of insufficient funding, 
     in fiscal year 2002, the maximum Federal Pell Grant was only 
     $4,000.
       (3) State budget deficits are having a pronounced effect on 
     State education funding and public college and university 
     tuition.
       (4) In fiscal year 1946, the share of the Federal budget 
     dedicated to education was 10.4 percent. In fiscal year 2002, 
     the share of the Federal budget dedicated to education was 
     2.5 percent. On March 23, 1994, the United States Senate 
     unanimously resolved to increase to 10 percent by 2004 the 
     share of the Federal budget dedicated to education.

     SEC. __. MEET THE PROMISE OF THE NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT.

       In addition to any amounts otherwise appropriated under 
     this Act for part A of title I of the Elementary and 
     Secondary Education Act of 1965, the following sums are 
     appropriated, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise

     SEC. __. HELP FOR FAMILIES PAYING FOR COLLEGE.

       (a) Additional Appropriations.--The following sums are 
     appropriated, out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise 
     appropriated for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2003, 
     for an additional amount for ``Student Financial Assistance'' 
     for carrying out subpart 1 of part A of title IV of the 
     Higher Education Act of 1965, $1,350,000,000 to remain 
     available through September 30, 2004.
       (b) Maximum Pell Grant.--Notwithstanding any other 
     provision of this Act, the maximum Pell Grant for which a 
     student shall be eligible during award year 2003-2004 shall 
     be $4,500.
