study the climate of violence and extremism in america. 200 million americans did not strike down robert kennedy last night. anymore than they struck down president john f kennedy in 1963 or dr. martin luther king and april of this year. but those awful events. give us ample warning. that in a climate of extremism of disrespectful law of contempt for the rights of others violence may bring down the very best among us. and a nation that tolerates violence in any form cannot expect to be able to confine it to just minor outbursts for this reason. i am appointing with the recommendation of the leadership of the congress. with whom i have talked this evening a commission of most distinguished americans to immediately examine this tragic phenomenon. early the next morning june 6th, robert kennedy died. his death coming just four and a half years after the assassination of his brother and only two months after the murder of dr. martin luther king cast another dark shadow of grief across america. during his life. he knew far more than his share. of personal tragedy yet he never abandoned his faith in a

back in the late 1960's, robert kennedy, a senator from new york, asked the commissioner of education how will we know if this stuff is doing any good. he shrugged and said, we do not have any way to know. the big thing that no child left behind did was it said that if states wanted their title i dollars, they had to have standards and test kids regularly from gates -- grades three to eight in reading and math and once in middle school and high school in science and report this information. this is why today we know some of the consequences that the school closures during cold had -- during covid had. it also did two other big things that were more problematic. it required states to say whether schools were making adequate yearly progress, whether they were doing ok. if they failed to make adequate yearly progress, the third thing it did was it came up with a federal string of intervention that states had to do. there was little evidence that we knew whether any of this would actually work and it created a bunch of problems. that transparency that it created was hugely significant and
