    which would require all teachers and students at Iowa schools to sing at least one verse of the national anthem every day

    That’s weirder than requiring the whole thing.

        My dad had to take the citizenship test like 40 years ago and he still remembers the most weirdly-pointless shit no one should ever care about like “Ben Franky didn’t discover electricity but he was the first postmaster general”
