Original Note:
This bill adds LGBTQ+ to a list of marginalized groups to be represented in WA’s history curriculum, as in six other states today. The inclusion of LGBTQ+ historical figures has been shown to increase attendance by LGBTQ+ students, reduce bullying, and lower suicide rates. https://www.seattletimes.com/education-lab/what-to-know-about-was-law-requiring-lgbtq-history-in-public-schools/
