The bill aims to revise the educational curriculum in Arkansas regarding the failures of communist and autocratic systems while reinforcing the strengths of the constitutional republic system of the United States. It mandates the Department of Education to review and update social studies standards for grades 7-12 by the 2026-2027 school year. The updated curriculum will include age-appropriate content that compares the resiliency of the U.S. constitutional republic with the failures of communism and autocratic governments, as well as other democratic systems.

Specifically, the bill outlines several key areas to be included in the updated standards, such as the importance of constitutional limitations in government, the role of an educated citizenry in elections, and the historical record of oppression associated with communist and autocratic regimes. It also addresses the economic failures of countries that have adopted such systems and the historical trend of democracies deteriorating into autocracies. The bill defines "communism and autocratic government" as a system where absolute power is held by a single entity without legal constraints or mechanisms for popular control.
