Mathematical and Statistical Modeling Education Act: What It Means and How to Take Action
Mathematical and Statistical Modeling Education Act This bill requires the National Science Foundation (NSF) to take certain actions to increase mathematical and statistical modeling education in elementary and secondary schools. First, the NSF must make competitive awards to institutions of higher education and nonprofit organizations for research and development to support high-quality mathematical modeling education (e.g., data science and computational thinking) in schools. This authority to provide awards expires on September 30, 2029. Second, the NSF must seek to enter into an agreement with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to study and report on mathematical and statistical modeling education in schools.
Why physical mail matters
- Congressional staffers track and log constituent mail by position (support/oppose)
- Physical postcards have a higher psychological impact than emails or form letters
- During committee markup and floor votes, constituent contact volume directly influences how members vote
- Your postcard is mailed USPS First Class — it lands on a real desk in a real office
