The article focuses on the plan of the Democratic-controlled 110th U.S. Congress to reauthorize the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). President George W. Bush passed the NCLB as reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). Some legislators are considering a charter state option that would restore greater federalism in education. It states that the NCLB has not fulfilled its promise to reduce the federal government's involvement in state and local education policy.
