Johnston pledges to quote, “reject all federal mandates tied to federal funding,” and “fight against federally mandated curriculum, standardized tests, and all illegal and unconstitutional mandates from the federal Department of Education.”

Sheri Few, who heads the parent group United States Parents Involved in Education, known as (USPIE), said that “the fight against Common Core exposed the failures of a federally-based, one-size-fits-all curriculum on states and local school districts.”

“With the most recent federal usurp of state education authority through President Obama’s transgender bathroom/locker room edict, it is clearly time to end the unconstitutional authority assumed by the US Department of Education,” said Ida Frueh, Co-President of NDPIE. She went on to say, “For half a century now this experiment with federal control of local public schools has gone on and it’s failed.”

Republican and Democratic candidates at every level of government across the country are being asked to sign a pledge to end the US Department of Education.
