President Donald Trump is taking the first steps to fulfilling his campaign promise to dismantle the Department of Education. He signed an executive order today to begin that process. But, getting rid of the Department of Education entirely would require an act of Congress. Some lawmakers are not happy with the move: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a statement that “attempting to dismantle the Department of Education is one of the most destructive and devastating steps Donald Trump has ever taken.” He warned the “horrible decision” will hurt kids, parents and increase property taxes. Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren slammed the move as a “code red for every public school student, parent, and teacher in this country.” In a statement, she said they will “pay a heavy price.” But others support the president’s plan as it becomes a congressional debate: Republican Rep. Tim Walberg, who is the chair of the Education and Workforce Committee, said he believes the federal officials should have a smaller role in education. He said he looks forward to working with Education Secretary Linda McMahon “to get the federal government off the backs of students, families, educators, and taxpayers.” Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy, the chair of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, said he agrees with Trump and promised to “support the President’s goals by submitting legislation to accomplish this as soon as possible,” according to a post on X.
