Bill overview
This bill proposes to eliminate the entire Department of Education by December 31, 2026. It would transfer all of the Department’s functions and responsibilities to other federal agencies. Supporters of the bill argue that the Department’s role is unnecessary and that education should be primarily managed at the state and local levels. The bill’s passage would significantly alter the federal government’s involvement in education policy.
