A resolution establishing an annual Senate academic civics competition for secondary school students.

SRES 639 establishes an annual Senate-sponsored civics competition for secondary school students. The Rules Committee would organize this event, potentially partnering with groups like iCivics to design judging criteria and support the competition. It does not create new laws but creates a program to help students develop civic knowledge and media literacy skills. The resolution cites declining civics education scores and low civic knowledge among adults as motivation for the competition.
