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 670 is a non-binding resolution expressing the House of Representatives' sense that all 50 states should include the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks in elementary and secondary school curricula.
