Are you ready to present yes Sir you may go a present House SP sixty eight thank you Mr chair thank you Committee I saw this bill doesn't do does not mandate teaching the Holocaust education during this week it's just designating the last full week of January each year and requires the state board to remind schools annually what these dates are and to encourage them to teach during that week. On the Holocaust. Read questions schuchat. Members any questions for representative Vaught representative fight you're recognized. Thank you Mr chair we already have the Holocaust Memorial Day
this would just be expanding it to a week yes ma'am yes I am here. Representative Dick you're recognized thank you Mr chair I just have a quick question so if it works for their curriculum to do it at a different time in a year that they have the flexibility and okay thank you for clarifying questions. Representative McKenzie you're recognizing Mr is any prescribed or recommended curriculum that comes with this so we did that last session I are trying to remember what acted is off the top of my head I Senate to
representative Duke I can send it to you also but it was under the direction of the department if they had to come up with the curriculum for it thank you. And the. Yes six eleven there you go thank you. Any other questions by committee representative make sure recognized. I told representative all right here with the least one. the the only question I have is I notice it says the state board shall notify the public schools
is that something that the state board should do or should be the department of education and I may just be splitting hairs here I think it's splitting hairs but I'll try to. That is no bearing it was Board verses the Department. I guess the the the bark and tell the department to do it but yeah yeah at. I think it's where it's supposed to be obviously it came from the Senate and I know better than we know okay.
That raises red flags in another question about. That that would be for another debate another debate yes Sir yes Sir sorry Sir I'll keep it on the bill. Any other questions from committee. Seeing none we do have one person signed up to speak for the bill Steve used only. If you go into the table identify yourself for the record and you may proceed with your testimony.
Good morning my name is Steve brown L. a little rock small business owner and I'm here today. And it's a I'm here today I hope you can hear me representing the Holocaust education living proposal committee that worked with the representative Vaught and others in this committee to pass the bill last session to make Holocaust education required in public schools across the state the only thing I'd like to add because I feel like representative Vaught is handled this beautifully is that
the the last week of January is not a coincidence January twenty seventh which was last Friday is the anniversary date of the US army and the allied liberation of Auschwitz concentration camp in Europe. Which exposed the atrocities of the **** to the world and helped kind of bring home why the greatest generation fought for freedom and against tyranny and World War two. And so that week will be designated Holocaust education week also January twenty seventh
as United Nations recognized Holocaust education skews me Holocaust Remembrance Day across the world so it's very appropriate timely and appreciate your support. Members any questions for Mr Rondale. C. nine Sir thank you for your testimony today we thank you for being here thank you. No other questions representative body ready clothes for your bill I'm closed and I ask for a good vote motion to pass members we have a motion
do pass by representative Vaught Surrey discussion on the motion. Seeing none will vote on the motion all those in favor say aye opposed nay graduations your bill is passed. Members that said we will be back here Tuesday morning ten AM thank you for being here today we are adjourned.
