Trump’s signs of advice to start dismantling the education department in the US

US President Donald Trump has signed the executive order Having sent the officials to the beginning of the dismantling of the Education Department, the promise he made in the company of 2024.

“We’re going to close it as soon as possible,” Trump said after signing the order on Thursday. “It makes us anything good.”

Trump has long called on the department of the department, the cherished purpose of some conservatives, but it will be necessary to close it with a congress – which is unlikely.

This step is already facing the legal problems of those who seek to block the closure of the agency, as well as the extensive reduction of its employees announced last week.

Trump said “the United States is spending more money on education much than any other country,” but students “below the list in terms of success.”

The White House stated that its administration would move to reduce the parts of the department that remain within the legitimate borders.

But many Trump administration initiatives – which include mass firing, reduction of federal agencies and seek to reduce costs – have encountered legal problems, and it is expected that this executive order will face similar obstacles.

At the Trump ceremony, Linda McMahon praised, which he appointed to head the department, and hoped that she would become the last secretary of education. He said he would find “something else” for her in the administration.

After Trump signed the order, Republican Senator Louisiana Bill Cassidi announced plans to bring legislation aimed at closing the department.

But the Congress is unlikely to operate on the liquidation of the department, as the Republicans in the Senate have a thin 53-47 majority. The closure of the department will require 60 votes, which makes such legislation very incredible.

But even if the Department is officially not closed, Trump administration can change funding and staff, as has been done with the USA (USAID) agency, which further stopped many of its programs and humanitarian work.

The executive order does not include the specifics of what actions the administration will take and what programs can be overstated.

He orders McMuchon “to take all the necessary measures to facilitate the closure of the” Department and Provide Powers on Such issues by state and local authorities, “providing effective and uninterrupted service, programs and benefits to which Americans hope.”

Created in 1979, the education department oversees the financing of public schools, manages a student loan and manages programs that help low -income students.

Trump has accused him of Indo -activated youth with racial, sexual and political materials.

The common opinion is that the department manages US schools and sets curriculum – but it is done by states and local districts.

And a relatively small percentage of financing for elementary and secondary schools – about 13% – comes from federal funds. Most consist of states and local groups.

The agency also plays a prominent role in managing and supervision of a federal student loan that millions of Americans to pay higher education.

Shortly after she was oath, McMuhon sent 4,400 memorial staff entitled “The Last Mission of Our Division”.

“This is our opportunity to fulfill one last, unforgettable public service for future students,” she wrote.

“I hope you join me to ensure that if our final mission is completed; we will be able to say that we have left American education, stronger and more hope for the future.”

Earlier messages suggest that Trump will seek to complete some Department programs and send others to various departments, such as Treasury.

Trump and Comrades Republicans have accused the Department of promoting a “woken up” political ideology and saying that the department pushes liberal views on gender and race.

Recently, the largest trade union in America spoke about Trump’s plans, saying that “does not care for all children.”

In his statement, Aft said, “Nobody likes bureaucracy, and everyone advocates great efficiency, so let’s find ways to achieve it.

“But do not use the” war on woken up “to attack children who live in poverty, and children with disabilities to pay for permits and tax reduction for billionaires.”

Most US children attend public schools that are free and governed by local officials. Almost all of their funding comes from state and local taxes and decisions on the curriculum taken by the state and school districts.

The current department at the cabinet level was established by Congress at the end of 1979.

Two years later, former President Ronald Reagan, a Republican, began to cancel them to save money and prefer “local needs and preferences”.

Of the 4400 employees, this is the least agency in the presidential office and is less than 2% of the total federal budget.

Some of these employees have already affected According to the broad cuts of the Trump administration’s labor force, led by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), many called for retirement off from the outside or sent to paid administrative leave.

The dismissal at the agency will affect nearly 2100 people who are to be put on vacation from March 21.

DOGE efforts to reduce federal costs and radically restructuring – or just cancel – many state bodies have been controlled by the technological billionaire Elon Musk.
