house 02/13/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to ensure comprehensive Black history education is part of every U.S. student's learning journey. The Black History Matters Act proposes a thorough study of how Black history is taught in public schools, aiming to identify gaps and boost education quality. By understanding and appreciating the triumphs and struggles of African Americans, we aim to prepare students to challenge discrimination and promote inclusivity in our society.
