In this episode of The Weekly Congressional Report, we delve into H.R. 5349, the Crucial Communism Teaching Act. 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).
Join Brian Barnes & our AI hosts, Avery and Iris, as they break down the key components of the bill, exploring its potential to shape civic education by addressing critical gaps in students’ knowledge of communism and totalitarianism. Learn how this legislation could influence the next generation’s understanding of freedom, democracy, and civic responsibility.
