If you oppose Common Core, and the federal control over our children’s education that it entails, your choice for governor in the Republican primary election on June 3rd is clear cut.
Terry Branstad supports Common Core, even though he tries to mask that support by using the “Iowa Core” phony label. Do even a little research and you will find that Iowa Core IS Common Core, by another name.
I strenuously OPPOSE Common Core. I am devoted to making sure that it dies a quick death.
But even more than that, I am committed to restoring what I call “T.L.C.,” or True Local Control, over our schools. Parental rights and duties are God-given, and therefore are NOT negotiable!
It makes no practical sense to keep sending our education dollars to Des Moines, and to Washington, D.C., so that they can run those dollars through a huge bureaucracy, before they send a fraction of our money back to us with strings attached.
Bureaucrats do not educate a single child. Only parents, churches, local communities, and teachers can do that.
We need ACTION, not more talk. Not only must we kill Common Core, we need fundamental tax reform that will KEEP OUR MONEY AT HOME.
If you agree, I need your vote on June 3rd. And I need you to bring your family and friends to the polls with you.
Thank you!
For Iowa, for America, for our Posterity,
Tom Hoefling
2014 Republican candidate for Iowa Governor
