Social studies content standards-political ideologies.
HJ 7 is a non-binding resolution requesting the Wyoming State Board of Education to amend social studies content standards to include teaching about the negative consequences of communism, fascism, and socialism in the 20th and 21st centuries. It specifically asks for curriculum that covers documented historical abuses (such as human rights violations and loss of freedoms) under these ideologies and compares them with U.S. principles like democracy and individual rights. The resolution does not mandate changes but urges the Board to consider adding these teaching benchmarks during their standard review process. If adopted, this would affect social studies curriculum in Wyoming public schools, altering how these political ideologies are taught to students.
