WASHINGTON D.C. (KOLO) – U.S. Senators Jacky Rosen and James Lankford (R-OK) have introduced legislation aiming to strengthen Holocaust education.

The Holocaust Education and Antisemitism Less Act would direct the US Holocaust Memorial Museum to conduct a first of its kind, comprehensive study on Holocaust education that would help identify the resources and methods available to public schools to improve how teachers teach about the Holocaust.

“As our nation continues to face an alarming rise of antisemitism, and with Holocaust denial and distortion spiking worldwide, it’s critical that we identify and improve the resources available to our nation’s educators so they can accurately inform students about the horrors of the Holocaust and the dangers of anti-Jewish bigotry,” said Senator Rosen. “Our bipartisan legislation will help ensure the lessons of this dark chapter in history are never forgotten. I’ll keep working to combat antisemitism and make certain that Never Again means never again.”
