Surrounded by school children of all ages, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to start the dismantling of the 'no good' Department of Education.
President Trump signed an executive order to dismantle the Department of Education, aiming to return education policy to the states. He claims the U.S. spends the most on education but ranks lower than other countries. While completely dismantling the department requires Congressional action, Trump intends to significantly cut it and redistribute functions like Pell grants, student loans, and civil rights issues to other agencies.
