Citizen Engagement declares IN FAVOR of HSB 594. Please move the bill. Additionally, please clean up the current curriculum.The National Association of Scholars and the Civics Alliance have determined the current social studies program for Iowa has failed to provide properly revised social studies standards and fall short of the original legislative goal state in HF2545.
