Bill > S336

This bill amends an existing education law to require that curriculum standards in Massachusetts include meaningful instruction about the histories, roles, and contributions of LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer) people in the history of the United States and Massachusetts. By inserting this language into the existing law, the bill aims to ensure that educational standards provide comprehensive and inclusive historical content that represents the experiences and achievements of LGBTQ+ individuals, thereby promoting a more complete and representative understanding of history for students. The proposed change would require the state's educational authorities to develop curriculum standards that explicitly recognize and teach about LGBTQ+ people's significant contributions to the nation and the state.
