What it does
This bill would direct the Secretary of Defense to establish the Senator Robert J. Dole Greatest Generation Education Program to increase public awareness of the achievements and sacrifices of the World War II generation. The program would provide grants to state and local governments and nonprofit organizations for educational activities honoring WWII veterans, teaching about the home front and Holocaust remembrance, and engaging youth in civic learning. Grants to state governments are limited to new initiatives and cannot fund existing secondary education programs, and the Secretary of Defense would retain exclusive rights to the program’s name and symbols.
