The 1776 Commission is an education commission proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump to support "patriotic education" and to prepare for and celebrate the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States in 2026.

The Commission was conceived partly as a response to The New York Times' 1619 Project, which supporters claim views history from an important new lens and which a group of scholars from Princeton University, Brown University, City University of New York, University of Oxford, Northwestern University, and Stanford University have argued is historically inaccurate. As a result of criticism, the The New York Times issued a correction and follow up.

Background
U.S. President Donald Trump had first talked about a "patriotic education" as early as September 2, 2020.
