1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Computer Science for All Act of 2019 . 2. Findings Congress finds that: (1) Computer science is transforming industry, creating new fields of commerce, driving innovation, and bolstering productivity. It is projected that computing will make up 2/3 of new science and engineering jobs. (2) However, the more than 500,000 computing jobs unfilled in the United States suggests that our students are not being prepared to meet the demands of a 21st century economy. It is projected that there will be 1,400,000 new jobs in the technology sector by 2020; however, 70 percent of those jobs will be unfulfilled at the rate American universities are producing qualified graduates. (3) Knowledge of computer science and use of technology is increasingly essential for all individuals, not just those working or planning to work in the technology sector. (4) Providing students with computer science education in elementary school and secondary school is critical for student success, and strengthening the workforce of a 21st century economy. (5) While an estimated 90 percent of parents want computer science taught in their children’s schools, just 25 percent of all elementary schools and secondary schools offer high-quality computer science instruction that includes programming and coding. (6) Black and Hispanic workers in the science and engineering workforce continue to be underrepresented. Black employees represent 11 percent of the U.S. workforce, but only 9 percent of the science and engineering workforce. Hispanic employees represent 16 percent of the U.S. workforce, but only 7 percent of the science and engineering workforce. (7) While underrepresented minority students overall face an opportunity gap in STEAM education, women of color particularly face an achievement gap in science and engineering education. In 2015, while women were conferred nearly a third of all science and engineering degrees, women of color received only 13 percent (Black: 3.2 percent; Hispanic: 3.9 percent
