I think it's about assigning blame for the Holocaust.

But it sounds like the bill does just the opposite.
 
The bill in question prohibits attributing blame for Holocaust-related matters to Polish people and institutions. A few words that could be part of an explanatory sentence suffice in headline English.

For example, Headline English Succinct.
