“The Trump administration signaled [Tuesday] that it was moving forward on one of President Trump’s key election promises: shutting down the Department of Education. As someone who has advocated for this outcome for many, many years, I am personally thrilled it’s finally coming. The administration announced that the department’s core functions would be handed off to other agencies in anticipation of finally closing down. Actually abolishing the Education Department would take an act of Congress, though the Supreme Court has OK’d Trump’s move to fire many of the department’s bureaucrats, which is a good start. Frankly, it’s astonishing that this is actually happening. Republicans have been promising to shut down the Education Department for 50 years. (11/19/25)
