I remember back in the Jimmy Carter years, it seems like federal control was the “in thing”. I remember when I was in as late as 3rd grade, we started school after Labor day and then 4th grade, we started at the end of August and then four years later, we started Aug 20 ! This was in 1980 !

Started Aug 4 here in upper East Tennessee. There is a list as long as my arm of what the feds are into that they have no business in.

It's way past time to have this debate - but better late than never and if DeMint can get some traction - Go Man Go!!!
