Marco Rubio is not the only one running against Common Core in his closing pitch to Iowans. In addition to a YouTube video, Ted Cruz is putting ending Common Core in his Iowa stump speech — as well as abolishing the Department of Education to put an end to federal intrusion into local control of schools.
The Grand Forks Herald reports:
During his speech, [Cruz] also mentioned in passing entirely abolishing the federal Department of Education when he referenced doing away entirely with the new and highly controversial Common Core national educational standards.

Ted Cruz has been talking about ending Common Core since this summer and started talking about closing the US Dept. of Education since the middle of September when he spoke at the Eagle Forum conference in St. Louis!
