What the Federal Government does not need is more problems, and it certainly doesn't need to poke its rather large nose into the affairs of our country's private schools or into the affairs of parents who choose to educate their children at home. I strongly support Mr. Armey's amendment to H.R. 6. We need to make crystal clear that the Federal Government has no business interfering with private or home schools. Given the conditions in some of our country's public schools, the bureaucrats at the Department of Education surely have enough to worry about without poking their collective nose where it is not needed and does not belong.
