Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that all 50 States should include the events of the September 11th terrorist attacks in the curriculum of elementary and secondary schools so that people in the United States may never forget that fateful day.
HRES 692 is a non-binding resolution urging all 50 U.S. states to incorporate the events of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks into K-12 school curricula. It directly addresses state education systems, calling for mandatory inclusion of this history in public school lessons to ensure future generations remember the attacks.
