(b) Effective Date. This Act shall enter into force on January 1st, 2022.

(c) Severability.

(1) General Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, word, provision, or application of this Act shall for any person or circumstance be held to be illegal, invalid, unenforceable, and/or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of any other section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, word, provision or application of any law which is operable without the offending section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, word, provision or application shall remain effective notwithstanding such illegal, invalid, unenforceable, and/or unconstitutional section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, word, provision or application, and every section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, word, provision or application of this Act are declared severable. The Congress hereby declares that it would have passed each part, and each provision, section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or word of this Act, irrespective of the fact that any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, word, provision or application be declared illegal, invalid, unenforceable, and/or unconstitutional.

(2) When this Act Can be Severed.

(b) The 1619 Project. “1619 project” is the long-form journalism project made by Nikole Sheri Hannah-Jones of New York, New York for the New York Times that aims to reframe the country's history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of Black Americans at the very center of the national narrative.

####Section 3. Classes.

Any federal funding for the purposes of education that is to be given to any school district within the jurisdiction of the United States shall, in addition to current requirements, require as a condition for receiving such funding that school districts teach either in a history or geography class, or a separate class entirely, critical race theory (CRT) and the 1619 Project using a neutral viewpoint. The intent of Congress in requiring CRT to be taught is to move forward the reasonable goals of the CRT academic movement and those of The 1619 Project. The Congress instructs that CRT and The 1619 Project be taught strictly to meet the goals of CRT and the Project.
