What it contains. The whole act. A pandemic relief act runs to thousands of pages, and the sections read here are a few hundred lines each.
- Pub. L. 116-260, division M, title III, section 312(d). The Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2021, which created Emergency Assistance to Non-Public Schools. It reserves $2,750,000,000 of the Governor’s Emergency Education Relief Fund for the program. It allots each state’s share by “the number of children aged 5 through 17 at or below 185 percent of poverty who are enrolled in non-public schools in the State”, and has the Governor “designate the State educational agency to administer the program”. It requires that “the control of funds for the services or assistance provided to a non-public school … shall be in a public agency”. Paragraph (4)(M) permits reimbursement of some expenses a school had already incurred.
- Pub. L. 117-2, section 2002. The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, which funded a second round of the program. It appropriates another $2,750,000,000, available through September 30, 2023, for “services or assistance to non-public schools that enroll a significant percentage of low-income students and are most impacted by the qualifying emergency”. Subsection (b) provides that the funds “shall not be used to provide reimbursements to any non-public school”.

Caveats.
- An act states the law as enacted, not as amended. Neither section has been checked for later amendment. Both programs have closed, so the enacted text is the text that governed them.
- The federal award to Ohio is not here. These sections set the national total and the formula. Ohio’s allotment under each round is in the Department of Education’s award notices, which no source here retrieves.
