The official print number for this legislation is S 2468.
Prohibiting funding for divisive racial concepts in history and civics education.
This Act aims to prohibit the use of federal funds allocated for American history and civics education programs if they promote or compel 'divisive concepts.' This means federally funded schools cannot teach that one race is inherently superior, that the U.S. is fundamentally racist, or that an individual bears responsibility or guilt for past actions of their race. For citizens, this impacts the curriculum content in history and civics, shifting the focus away from assigning blame or discomfort based on race.

The definition of 'divisive concepts' includes claims that meritocracy or a hard work ethic are racist, or that the United States is fundamentally racist.
