Coalition Statement Regarding the Thrasher Letter
July, 2013The Florida Stop Common Core Coalition would have responded sooner to this letter from five former Republican Party of Florida officials, but there is absolutely nothing new here. Common Core proponents continue to offer the same tired talking points without data or references. They continue to try to defend the indefensible. The Coalition has thoroughly debunked this information many times at the links listed below. Our detailed policy analysis will be published very soon and we are confident that responses will be coming shortly from others as well. Do not be troubled by this latest propaganda piece.
