This bill mandates that school districts in New Jersey incorporate instruction on labor history and the contributions of the labor movement into the curriculum for students in grades six through twelve. Specifically, it requires that this instruction aligns with the New Jersey Student Learning Standards in Social Studies and covers key topics such as the history of organized labor, notable strikes, unionization efforts, and the collective bargaining process, including existing workplace legal protections.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the Commissioner of Education will supply school districts with age-appropriate sample learning activities and resources to facilitate the implementation of this requirement. The act is set to take effect immediately and will first apply to the full school year following its enactment.
