trump's education plans ?

resource request/offer

i'm not sure how welcome a political post is because i don't see a lot here, but i'm seeing a lot of language around "parental rights" in the mainstream right now after trump has announced plans surrounding the department of education and i have hardly ever seen that phrase used in regards to education outside of homeschooling communities before.

there is a very sad amount of legislation that protects homeschooled students in most states (obviously), including in my own republican-controlled state so i know there is not any direct links to an affect this will have, but my worry is that it will be much harder for homeschooled students to pursue higher education and integrate into public schools. i also worry that there will be a rise in homeschooling and right-wing religious communities that push homeschooling after seeing language from homeschooling communities hit mainstream news outlets.

is there any way i can contact my local lawmakers to try to connect on this issue? i just don't want to see the state of education in this country get worse and i'm not sure what to do.
