Bill overview
This bill proposes to eliminate the entire Department of Education. It sets a specific termination date of December 31, 2026, effectively ending the department’s operations. Supporters of the bill argue this would reduce federal bureaucracy and return education control to state and local governments. The bill’s passage would significantly alter the federal government’s role in overseeing education policy and funding.
