On Thursday, March 20, White House Head Donald Trump signed a decree to begin the liquidation of the US Department of Education. This is reported by UNN with reference to the broadcast of the ceremony.
Details
According to Trump, the decision to liquidate the educational department has been in preparation for a long time, while "everyone, including Democrats, knows that this is the right decision."
45 years after the creation of the US Department of Education, they spend much more money on it than any other country and spend the most money per student than any other country, but we are at the bottom of the list in terms of educational success
Meanwhile, the union representing the employees of the Ministry of Education has already expressed outrage at the decision of the head of the White House.
"Trump's decree to liquidate this small but powerful department will destroy our education system and harm future generations of students
As you know, the liquidation of the US Department of Education was one of Trump's main election promises during the presidential campaign. Now, the adoption of the relevant law by Congress is necessary for the final closure of the department.
Reminder
In February, Elon Musk's attempts to reduce US spending led to a series of cuts in the Ministry of Education totaling more than 900 million dollars. Thus, the Ministry of Education "terminated" 89 contracts, as well as 29 grants related to diversity and equality training.
