Providing Equal Treatment to Home Educators
Feb 12, 2016
One of America’s most distinctive and exceptional qualities is the spirit of liberty embodied in our people and in our institutions. And there is perhaps no better expression of the American ethos of liberty than the belief that parents have the inalienable right – and indeed the responsibility – to direct the education of their children. Nowhere else in the world will you hear from parents what is widely held as a self-evident truth in households across America: that no one is in a better position to make decisions about a child’s education than his or her parents or guardians.

Lee Applauds Gov. Herbert’s Sage Grouse Law Suit
Feb 4, 2016
WASHINGTON – Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) issued the following statement Thursday, after Utah Gov. Gary Herbert announced he is suing Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to stop Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service implementation of their sage grouse management plan.
“I commend Gov. Herbert’s decision to fight the Obama administration’s efforts to control federal land in Utah from Washington, DC,” Lee said. “Western states have a well-established and exemplarily record of implementing their own sage grouse conservation plans and there is zero need for other federal agencies to get involved.”
