the federal government should not incentivize the adoption of common education standards or the creation of a national assessment to align with such standards; and
no application process for any federal grant funds or waivers issued by the Secretary of Education under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 should award any additional points, or provide any preference, for the adoption of the Common Core State Standards or any other national common education standards.
