I have always had certain reservations about the HSLDA also. One can't be part of the political process without some corruption, imo.
Families "being represented" not in their individual best interest, or according to their belief aren't being represented, they are being used for someone else's agenda, again, imo.

I really need to find out what our local CHEF leader says about this. It would be my guess that she would be against it, and I trust her so much. She has so much insight. Like I said before, I can't believe that my representative, a homeschooler himself, is supporting this. I emailed him yesterday and am getting ready to do so again because I have not gotten a reply -- which I might add is unusual!

This is the letter I sent to my representative.
Dear Mr. xxxxxxxx, I am a homeschooling mother of 3 in your district. I am concerned about your support of the HONDA legeislation, HR 2732. I feel that although this legislation looks great on it's face (and it truly does!) it is only allowing the federal government to get it's foot in the door of my homeschool. While that might work out just fine with the current administration, I do not trust the future governments to look so favorably on homeschoolers. I do not trust the government to have a say in my child's curriculum, which is why I have chosen to homeschool. If this bill is passed, I fear that with it will give the government leeway in prescribing what curricula will fit their idea of what is appropriate, which I already know, doesn't necessarily match my idea of the same! I urge you to reconsider your sponsorship of this legislation. Prayerfully yours, Star*
