The Trump administration is advancing its plans to dismantle the Department of Education, with Education Secretary Linda McMahon announcing a series of significant changes. Federal school aid will continue to be distributed as the Education Department transfers its responsibilities to other federal agencies, including the Department of Labor. Critics, including Senator Baldwin and civil rights advocates, have condemned these actions, arguing that they undermine educational support and civil rights protections. Additionally, a recent poll indicates that a portion of the American public supports eliminating the Department altogether. As the department offloads various programs and powers to other entities, the move has sparked considerable debate about the future of education policy and funding in the United States.
