FILE - In this March 13, 2015 file photo Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. speaks at Bowie State University in Bowie, Md. In the Republican roar over Common Core, various myths are being peddled as fact.

In complicated but unmistakable ways, the federal government does put pressure on states to live up to the standards. (AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana, File) (AP)
