CONGRESS WAKING UP TO THE LIBERAL ATTEMPTS TO CONTROL OUR CHILDREN THROUGH FALSE EDUCATION


Submitted by: Nancy Battle
Now Congress is on the bandwagon.  WE MUST STRIKE NOW WHILE THE IRON IS HOT.  I sent you all an email yesterday about Sen. Grassley (you can find that article further down in the email) Now a Congressman is looking for a full investigation of FERPA changes and Common Core.  If you do nothing else PLEASE PLEASEmake a call/send an email/send a fax/write a letter (do 1 or do them all)/SHARE this request with friends, neighbors, relatives, and members of your group to your US SENATORs and US HOUSE REP.  Ask them to co-sponsor the efforts of Sen. Grassley and Rep. Luetkemeyer.  They need to know they have the support of the American people before they will step out against Obama and Duncan on this issue.

We will be taking more actions in the near future but for now lets hit them hard with phone calls.  If you can I would also call Sen. Grassley and Rep. Luetkemeye and THANK them for this brave effort.  They too need to know we have their back on this issue.

Rep. Luetkemeyer  202-225-2956

Congressman Luetkemeyer Letter to US DoED

Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer (R-MO) has written, and is gathering co-signers in Washington for, a letter expressing serious concerns with the manner in which the US Department of Education has involved itself with Common Core standards. The letter also notes the highly irregular process used to change the Congressional FERPA allowing the sharing of individual student records. The letter was written with the oversight of the House Education & Workforce Committee and already has interest from republican representatives in UT, IN, KS, MN, MI and even a democrat in IL.

Our understanding from Congressman Luetkemeyer's staff is that Common Core is a very hot topic in DC. That must mean we are on the right path in opposing it.
