Wish we were getting rid of it here in Georgia. Unfortunately, Republican voters here just re-nominated the same Republican who stuck us with Common Core to begin with. And these same Republican voters defeated the one State School Superintendent candidate who vowed to trash it. We suffer from our own low-info voter problems. And the state GOP loves it.
Went to our local GOP meeting months ago with State Senator Tyler Harper (Or Rep) and he was all for it but could not go into any real detail on it, When I did he said it was all lies and supported it 100%. Several others at the meeting seen right through him but as you say too many just accept status quo! Never Give Up, Never Surrender, Just approach for different angles until you Succeed...
God Bless
