>that relate to homeschooling rights: homeschools, private schools, parents
>rights, religious liberty, compulsory attendance, child welfare code,
>teacher certification, university admission standards, curfews, education
>tax credits, etc. We carefully analyze these bills and continue to monitor
>their progress through the legislature.
