Dear Colleague, 
Please ACT TODAY to develop a talented workforce for our state by supporting world-class educational standards for Michigan learners.
A bipartisan legislative subcommittee will be meeting on the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) starting this week through the end of August. The standards simply specify what kids should be able to know and do at every grade level in math and English, so they can be ready to advance when they graduate no matter whether they enter the workforce or continue their education.
As a leader with a strong interest in the talent of the future, we encourage you to help others and the media understand how critical these standards are to Michigan’s future economic success.
Doug Rothwell,
President & CEO
