This bill directs the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation to develop and disseminate a civic education curriculum aimed at high school students. The curriculum focuses on increasing awareness of communism’s historical atrocities, highlighting its impact on over 100 million victims worldwide, and fostering an understanding of how these political ideologies conflict with the principles of U.S. democracy. (The committee report on the bill can be found here).
