You're right - HSLDA does sometimes take positions that members disagree with. Especially in state matters, local people often have a better idea of what's going on, and what constitutes effective action.

On the other hand, one can be a member without supporting everything the organization does. I feel much more secure knowing that if the Authorities show up at the door, I have someone to call who can actually do something!

I'm really not sure whether or not to support HONDA now.

How about a law that defines homeschooling as a form of private school? This would get the government completely out of homeschooling. The government should neither favor or oppose homeschooling.
