This resolution mandates the establishment of an annual Senate academic civics competition specifically for secondary school students. The Committee on Rules and Administration is tasked with creating and managing this competition, which seeks to counteract the documented decline in civics knowledge and engagement among young Americans. The initiative is a response to findings indicating lower civics scores and widespread civic disengagement, aiming to foster civic reasoning and media literacy skills. To facilitate the competition, the Committee is authorized to partner with public or nonprofit organizations , such as iCivics, for assistance with design and judging rubrics. Additionally, it may accept private donations to help cover associated costs, ensuring the program's sustainability and reach.
