I support HB2608

I strongly support HB2608. Asian American communities in Virginia have tirelessly advocated for more accurate and inclusive history education—education that truly reflects the contributions and experiences of diverse groups. It's essential that Virginia students gain a comprehensive understanding of our nation's history, rather than just selective portions. This bill is a meaningful step forward in ensuring that history education respects and represents all Virginians. I believe it will foster greater understanding and mutual respect among future generations.
