2016 UACC BILL TRACKER
LAUNCHED
The Utah legislature meets for its yearly session now. The session is only a few weeks long. Bills will pass or not pass, right now.
On the Utahns Against Common Core (UACC) website, there is now a bill tracker built in. UACC is asking you, your neighbor, your teacher friends, your grandparents– anyone who cares about saving local control and liberty and high quality, honorable education –to please help review and file education bill reports so we can see at a glance which bills are a problem. You will be helping legislators, who cannot possibly analyze the number of bills that they are asked to analyze in the time given.
Oak Norton, UACC email director, has sent out emails about it. If you’re not on the email list, go to the UACC site and sign the petition. You will then receive all future e-mailings.
Sign up for a bill here: https://docs.google.com/…/1h_eB3A9Ghqfa6-sdEwjRGSkaLb…/edit…
Read it and then report on it here: http://www.utahnsagainstcommoncore.com/20…/file-bill-report/

US PARENTS INVOLVED IN EDUCATION (USPIE)
LAUNCHED
In a series of press conferences held this week in various states, US Parents Involved in Education (USPIE) launched its campaign to stop federal intrusion into local education, and launched a membership drive for parents to join, as well as a pledge for legislators to sign, if they stand for true local control of education, as well.
Please join with those across the nation who realize that it’s time to reassert authority over education, over privacy rights, over testing and curriculum; and over stewardship of children by their own families.
COMMON CORE 
It was so wonderful to see Christel in Houston for an awesome event. Christel is a gracious, humble and just darn sweet person. She gave an awesome presentation talking about the heart of a mother. I wish Christel and all the members of USPIE and the state groups the best of everything and hope God grants them success in their endeavors to end the US Dept. of Education.
Hi Christal,,
I have applied for a position on the Canyon School Board here in Midvale, Utah. I am opposed to Common Core and I would like as much information as you can give me on this. If I am selected for this position I WILL be the people’s voice and stand with them.
Thank You
Shirley Warren
