The bill proposes the addition of a new section to the Minnesota Statutes, specifically chapter 120A, which encourages school districts to commemorate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month each May. The legislation aims to promote educational activities that allow students to learn about the diverse cultures, traditions, and contributions of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders to American history and culture.

Under this new provision, school districts are encouraged to provide instruction or conduct programs that highlight these communities' achievements. Additionally, the bill allows for partnerships with community groups to enhance the observance of the month, fostering a greater understanding and appreciation of Asian American and Pacific Islander heritage among students.
