I can't believe they're trying to push this bill through. It's just another government overreach into our education system. Why do we need the feds getting involved in modernizing math education? This is just going to lead to more bureaucracy and wasted taxpayer dollars. I don't want some big government program telling me how to teach math. Leave it to the states and local communities to handle education. This bill is a disaster waiting to happen.
