What this bill would do
This bill, titled the "October 7 Remembrance Education Act," directs the Director of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum to create a specific curriculum. This curriculum is intended for use in secondary schools and will focus on the study of modern-day antisemitism surrounding the October 7, 2023, terrorist attacks by Hamas against Israel. The curriculum must cover several key areas, including the history of antisemitism and the role it played in the attacks. It also addresses how antisemitism and anti-Israel rhetoric spread through the United States and on college campuses. Additionally, the curriculum will cover how social media accelerated this spread and the use of denial and distortion. Finally, the Director must submit a report on the completed curriculum to Congress.
