The Wisconsin Assembly approved a bipartisan bill that would require schools to include instruction on the Holocaust and other genocides.
Under the proposal, public, charter and private voucher schools would have to include instruction on the Holocaust and other genocides at least once in grades 5-8 and once in grades 9-12.
The bill would require the state superintendent to develop model curricula by working with an organization in Wisconsin and a state agency in another state that has already developed similar curricula.
The Assembly passed the measure yesterday. The Senate already passed the bill in March.
It now goes to Gov. Tony Evers.
