To amend the National Science Foundation Authorization Act of 2002 to authorize grants for Partnerships for Access to Laboratory Science (PALS).

H.R. 5106 seeks to improve science education in high-need school districts by providing federal grants to upgrade high school laboratories and equipment. These grants would fund partnerships between schools and higher education institutions to ensure students have access to modern instrumentation and hands-on learning in mathematics, science, engineering, and technology. The goal of the legislation is to better prepare secondary students for technical careers and higher education by modernizing the facilities where they learn.
