	Wendy Long on Education

Self-interested bureaucracies corrosive on public schools

It breaks my heart to see children who cannot get the same wonderful public school education that I had and who do not have access to the same educational opportunities that my own children have because of the corrosive effects of big government and self-interested bureaucracies on our public schools.

Opposes Common Core as a nationwide academic standard.

Long opposes the AFA survey question on Common Core

The American Family Association Action Voter Guide asked if candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'The federal government should establish Common Core as a nationwide academic standard for high school graduation.' American Family Association Action (AFA Action) produces the online "iVoterGuide" for selected state and federal races. The mission of AFA Action is to inform and mobilize individuals to strengthen the biblical foundations of America.
