321. All of our kids are suffering because our politicians have decided not to fund schools the way they

used to. And it's not just K-12. Why do you think universities are having to increase tuition so much and try to make their building so appealling? They do it because the government does not fund them the way they use to. Did I say I wanted to go back to the day when autistic kids were ostrisized? No I didn't. I said they needed more funding and the ability to follow their IEPs the way the ADA meant for them to be followed. By forcing these Common Core Standards on our special needs kids they are violating our ADA rights. I hear people offer me solutions on this board all the time. The one thing I never hear is support on more funding. Why is that? Why is it democrats don't support more funding for our schools? It does not matter. I have left the democratic party over this very issue. I no longer care what democrats have to say on this issue because they have no credibility with me anymore. I will continue to fight for more funding for our schools and I will keep fighting to stop Common Core Standards and Race to the Top just as many teachers and parents are now fighting to do. Many teachers are beginning to protest class sizes and standardized testing. We will do this eventually with or without the democrats help. When Bush was president I heard lots of people saying get rid of No Child Left Behind. Well Obama is doing the same thing with Race to the Top and I don't hear democrats saying get rid of Race to the Top. Why is that?
