Duncan Introduces Resolution Condemning Common Core
- Details
- By Press Release
Washington, D.C. – Congressman Jeff Duncan (SC-03) introduced H. Res. 476, which denounces the use of federal coercion to lure states into adopting Common Core academic standards. The companion resolution to Senator Lindsey Graham’s S. Res. 345 also underlines the importance of returning education to the states.
“Common Core is one of the most frequent concerns I hear from parents when I’m traveling across the district. Parents and teachers alike are alarmed by this top-down approach to education that wrongly ties education money for states to the adoption of academic standards that do not fully reflect the values of South Carolina. Beyond the most important constitutional issues with federal education standards, many education leaders have been raising concerns with the content of the standards themselves.”

“Millions of Dollars Each Year … Go to Promote the Girl Scout’s Partnership with Planned Parenthood”
Several pro-life organizations are encouraging their members and supporters to “say no” when Girl Scouts come to the door with cookies. They give as a reason the financial support going to Planned Parenthood from the Scout organization and the propaganda influence the organization is having on young girls and their mothers. Planned Parenthood is the nation’s largest abortion provider.
WND reported that the American Life League, the nation’s oldest Catholic pro-life education and advocacy group, urged people to avoid buying Girl Scout Cookies. “The Girl Scouts was once a trusted organization dedicated to character building in young girls and women. Now, GSUSA is abusing that trust,” said Judie Brown, president of ALL.
