Prohibits teaching of critical race theory in public schools; prohibits public school teachers from engaging in political, ideological, or religious advocacy in classroom.

This New Jersey bill prohibits public school teachers from teaching concepts related to critical race theory or engaging in political, ideological, or religious advocacy during class. It specifically bans lessons promoting ideas such as inherent racial superiority, collective guilt based on race, or claims that the U.S. government is fundamentally racist. The bill allows teaching ethnic history, impartial historical discussions, and historical documents, but requires schools to present both sides of controversial issues in a neutral manner. Violating districts risk losing state funding until compliance is achieved.
