State Reading Laws and their effectiveness?

Just wanted to share an interesting segment I saw on Ben Swann's Reality Check on Ohio's recent state mandated reading laws (these laws are in place in other states, as he points out, but this news station is based in Cincinnati, OH).  He questions their effectiveness and points to the issue of teaching to the test.
