Trump signs order to dismantle US Department of Education

ai generated text

President Donald Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the US Department of Education, but the complete abolition of the department would require a supermajority in the Senate, which is 60 votes out of 100. Instead, Trump's order returns a large part of the department's prerogatives to the states. The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) has responded with a statement saying they will see Trump in court.

    1. Donald Trump knows perfectly well he can't abolish the department of education without Congress.

    1. The Department's federal funding ensures that all children, regardless of who they are or which zip code they are born in, can achieve a quality education. Without the Department of Education, many of our kids will be left behind, unable to receive the education they need and deserve.
  3. US
    Tina Smith
    Democratic Party
    1. You can't shut down the Department of Education -- and you know it.
  4. US
    Bill Cassidy
    Republican Party
    1. Since the Department can only be shut down with congressional approval, I will support the President's goals by submitting legislation to accomplish this as soon as possible.
    2. I agree with President Trump that the Department of Education has failed its mission.
  5. US
    Karoline Leavitt
    Republican Party
    1. The department of education will be much smaller than it is today.
    2. The Department of Education has never educated a child. All it has ever done is stolen money from the taxpayers.
  6. US
    Donald Trump
    Republican Party
    1. I will sign an executive order to begin eliminating the Federal Department of Education once and for all.
    2. It's doing us no good. We want to return our students to the states where just some of the governors here are so happy about this.
    3. We're going to return education back to the states where it belongs.
  7. US
    Heritage Foundation
    1. It's a beautiful day to dismantle the Department of Education.
  8. US
    Ted Mitchell
    American Council on Education
    1. This is political theater, not serious public policy.
