    The document discusses the Rizal Law, which mandates the inclusion of Jose Rizal's life, works, and writings in the curriculum of all public and private schools and universities in the Philippines. It was passed in 1956 to honor Rizal as the national hero and instill patriotism in students. While some opposed it as against freedom of religion, supporters argued it aimed to keep Rizal's memory alive and promote the ideals he fought for. The law requires the teaching of Rizal's works like Noli Me Tangere and allocates funds for their distribution.
