A to Z Home’s Cool Homeschooling – 10/10/05

Our good friend Ann Zeise tackles HR 3753 and explains why it should be of concern to homeschoolers and – with her usual thoroughness – provides scores of links to primary sources:

On the 14th of September, 2005, HSLDA announced the introduction in Congress of HR 3753/SB 1691, the Homeschool Non-Discrimination Act of 2005.  If the bill is enacted as it stands, Section 10 would be a new part of public law, not a correction of existing law, and would be the first section concerning military recruitment addressing a specific population:  homeschoolers. 

Instead of closing the federal barn door after some of the horses have already left, this one opens the barn door to invite the rest of the federal bureaucratic herd inside through the setting of precedent, including definitions of homeschooling in federal law.

Important reading for all homeschooling parents.
