S. 1400 is a plan to make it easier for grown-ups to learn new skills and find jobs by improving programs that teach reading and using computers, and by having special helpers called "navigators" to guide them. It wants to use a lot of money to make sure people can get the help they need, but needs to be careful about how that money is spent.

The Senate wants to have a special week in September 2024 called National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week to show how important it is for grown-ups to learn reading, writing, and using computers, which helps them do better in life and work. They hope more people and groups will support programs that help adults learn these useful skills.

S. 4391 is a plan to help grown-ups learn how to use computers and the internet better, so they can get jobs and do other important things, like helping their families and being good neighbors, but it needs to be more clear about money and rules.

This proposal is all about giving a special week in September a name to remind everyone how important it is for grown-ups to learn to read, write, and do math, as well as for families to read together. It encourages people and groups to help everyone have the chance to learn these skills so they can do well in life.
