Government mandates are not looked upon in a good light in America, and Common Core is one manifestation of such animosity between citizen and government:

The California Alliance of Researchers for Equity in Education (CAREE), which brings together more than 100 university-based education researchers, recently released aResearch Brief, titled “Common Core State Standards Assessments in California: Concerns and Recommendations,” in February 2016. In the brief, the authors call for the end of high-stakes testing in the state, citing research showing a lack of compelling evidence Common Core standards have improved education.
