Did you know that HSLDA has helped members in a wide variety of homeschool-related cases from veteran affairs and social security benefits to issues with local school districts? Listen in as Kevin Boden (HSLDA Staff Attorney) and Jim Mason (HSLDA President) discuss past cases that have had significant influence on homeschool freedom and why these cases serve as a reminder that we must, as James Madison said many years ago, "take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties."

"It would have been really easy [to comply with the school district]. . . . [But] by standing up at that very early intrusion into liberty, not only do other school districts in Virginia not follow suit . . . but it also [tells] these officials that homeschoolers know the law; they respect and follow the law, but they want you to do that too. And they will make you do it if you don't do it in the first place."—Jim Mason
